The green maze of mangroves, silvery lagoons and the deserted beaches of the Bijagos stretching to the horizon.

The drumming of Bijago ceremonies, the slow surf and the call of seabirds.
Touch
Fine sand under bare feet, the warm ocean water and the smooth wood of the pirogues.
Taste
Freshly caught fish, rice with djagacida and sun-drenched tropical fruit.
Smell
Salt-laden air, fish grilled over a wood fire and damp earth after the rain.
