A host of activities are on offer designed to stimulate, energise and relax. We aim to tease out that creative side that is sometimes thwarted by the pressures of life. Just being able to imbibe the natural calmness and peacefulness alone of the Gambia will have a healing affect, so if you choose to do nothing at all but sit by the beach, you would have credited your health account twofold.
