The fish market in the village of Tanji is one of the greatest tourist attractions of the Atlantic coast of Gambia. The fancifully painted fishing boats and pirogues, fishermen's wives in colorful costumes, merchants closing the market and gulls circling above them make an amazing impression. Right next to the beach, thousands of fish carcasses were drying in the sun, giving off an amazing stench. Just life itself. On the other hand, the fish in the nearby fish shop were licking their fingers.
