At the moment the place is closed because it is floated with water, but Yuri will fix it as soon as possible.

Its not the most picturesque camping area but it's a safe place to park your car and good location for exploring old town Bissau, everything worth visiting is within a 20 minute walk. The camping is behind the pink wall, we payed 5000 per night with access to hose and toilet, bucket shower. We had a nice weekend in Bissau. The entrance is a little narrow but okay for us, visited with LWB sprinter

We spend a night there with three cars. Is a good place for visit Bissau. Yuir is a nice guy but i wish he invest a little bit more in the infrastructure. He take 5000 CFA for one car per night.

With no alternatives in Bissau, this is an option to have your car parked behind a gate. It is a bit hard to find, because it is not a campsite, but an old factory building without a roof.
Yes there is a bucket toilet. And we can confirm that Yuri is a friendly guy. Honestly a bit overpriced!

Excellent place to stay in Bissau near the interesting old town. When get to marked location may need to ask for Yuri. He speaks excellent English. Good level area for our landrover with roof top tent. Access to their tranquil shaded garden. Would highly recommend.

Nice place to stay and safe for your vehicle. The people living here are friendly and helpful. We ended up 'camping' inside their shed. Difficult to get in with a low car.
