Shipping to The Gambia

The River Gambia

The River Gambia is the main artery that runs through the entire length of the country, and is navigable throughout the year by smaller vessels up to 300 kilometres.

Large ocean-going vessels can travel upstream as far as Kuntaur, about 190 kilometres from Banjul.

Several ferries are operated along the river; the main ones being Banjul/Barra and Farafenni on the busy Trans-Gambia highway.

The Government maintains a policy of upgrading these ferries, and procuring new ones when needed.

Ferry operations are under the management of the Gambia Ports Authority (GPA), a public enterprise in the transport industry.
