Isles de Loos & the island of Fotoba (Tamara)

Drum, dance, and island-hop on a private pirogue (a long narrow canoe) in Guinea’s tropical paradise, the archipelago of Iles de Loos, a group of palm-fringed islands with golden sand beaches and forested bird-filled interiors. located off the Atlantic coast of Guinea's capital city Conakry. 

There are three main islands (and a couple of rocky islets) though only two, Île de Kassa and Île Room, are kitted-out for visitors. You will have the unique opportunity to study on the Iles de Fotoba (Tamara), an island rarely experienced by vistors. 

Discover why many consider the area an inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's novel, "Treasure Island." Once a center for the Atlantic slave trade, today three islands are inhabited and have elementary amenities, while the remaining four are not.

 

Motor vehicles are not permitted on the islands, but numerous trails provide plenty of hiking. Try the local seafood specialties of this well-known fishing area.
