I got to Toubacouta quite late and that's why I had trouble finding a guide with a boat. We finally made it and we set off for a ride on the Bandiab River. As it was almost noon, all the birds were hiding somewhere. Fortunately, the picturesque delta of the Diombos and Bandiab rivers made the cruise itself a great attraction, and its culmination was a visit to an island made of shell debris.
