Elephant Island
Elephant Island, located in The Gambia, is one of the unique land opportunities managed by Ecological Development Company Ltd.
Stretching approximately 6.7 kilometers long and 2.3 kilometers wide, the island lies about 155 river kilometers upstream of Banjul, right where the Gambia River narrows to around 500 meters and reaches depths of up to 18 meters.
This exceptional location acts as a natural transition zone between brackish and freshwater ecosystems, making it both environmentally rich and strategically positioned for sustainable eco-housing and tourism projects.
Its surrounding mangrove forests thrive in the balanced riverine environment, offering a serene natural setting and supporting diverse wildlife — a perfect foundation for low-impact, nature-integrated living.
EDC Gambia envisions low-cost eco housing, eco-resorts, and community living projects on Elephant Island that blend environmental preservation with innovative, affordable design.
With careful planning and eco-sensitive infrastructure, this island can become a model for sustainable riverine development in West Africa, combining nature, comfort, and opportunity in one remarkable location.
Paradise (Jinack) Island
Jinack Island (also known as Jinnack, Djinak or Ginak) is one of The Gambia’s most beautiful and strategically located coastal islands — covering approximately 15.2 square kilometers within the Niumi National Park, and partly extending into Senegal.
The island stretches about 13 kilometers in length and 700 meters in width, offering an impressive 11-kilometer Atlantic beachfront near the mouth of the Gambia River. This rare combination of protected natural environment, ocean access, and proximity to Barra and Banjul makes Jinack Island a premier site for sustainable development.
Separated from the mainland by the narrow Niji Bolong, and surrounded by lush mangrove ecosystems, Jinack Island provides an ideal setting for eco-resorts, low-cost eco housing, and nature-integrated community projects. Its unique geography allows for projects that balance ecological preservation with innovative, low-impact design.
Currently lightly populated, the island hosts a few local communities and small lodges catering to eco-tourism — earning it the nickname “Paradise Island.”
Under the vision of Ecological Development Company Ltd (EDC Gambia), Jinack Island represents a unique opportunity to create a flagship coastal eco-housing and tourism destination — blending Gambian culture, sustainable living, and natural beauty.
The Gambia serves as an essential hub for transportation and trade in West Africa, with the Gambia Port playing a crucial role in the import and export of goods. Strategically located along the coastline, the port facilitates smooth maritime access for various African countries, making it an ideal gateway for international trade. Local transport companies have established robust logistics networks that efficiently link the port to neighboring countries, enhancing regional trade opportunities. With its deep-sea capabilities, the Gambia Port can accommodate larger vessels, ensuring that businesses can easily engage in import and export activities. As a result, exporters and importers can leverage this infrastructure to access markets across the continent, fostering economic growth and trade relations among African nations.
Gambia Port: Heavy Cargo, Seamless Delivery!
Here are some pictures showcasing the possibilities at the Port of The Gambia, highlighting its impressive infrastructure. The inner anchorage area spans 1 to 1.2 miles in width and extends 2 miles in length, providing ample space for vessels. The approach channel is 26 miles long with a minimum depth of 9.0 meters, ensuring safe navigation for larger ships. The port features a total of five berths distributed across two piers, namely Banjul Wharf and New Banjul Jetty, which facilitate efficient cargo handling. Moreover, there is a dedicated container terminal to support the growing trade activities in the region.
