Check-Ins

great stay, lots of campers.
not a big parking

WARNING!!! We got our motorcycles filled for local price, after we told him, that we always got local price in Bolivia so far ( that also wasn't a lie btw). However, they had the petrol mixed with some really bad shit. We don't know what it was, but no water. It swam at the surface of the tank and, even after we had emptied our tanks almost completely by using a hose, it needed several fresh fillings of good fuel, to get the shit out of our tanks and probably fuel filters completely. Every time the fuel level became low, the bad stuff swimming on the surface, started to make trouble again. Both identical motorcycles jumped like kangaroos and were almost not able to ride anymore. The petrol came out of the normal petrol pump.

Hotel run by a wonderful family. Basic room and shower for a night for one person for 50q. Space to keep bicycles inside. The family invited us in to use their kitchen and eat and chat with them. They were ace!

It's mostly a gringo place. I thought it would be more local, but in the one time I stopped by to have a look, and then the next day when I ate there, it was only white people speaking English.

So... there's that.

The food is pretty good. Very messy to eat. Not really a burger. It's near impossible to pick up and eat like a burger. You have to eat it with a fork.

They give you a complimentary appetizer and dessert. No complaints there.

So, if you're looking for something local, this isn't it. If you don't mind following around all the other backpackers and vanlifers, have a go. It's not bad.

Just along the dirt road there is lots of places to pull off and sleep, we saw one other car but there is so much room you can be as close or as far away from someone as you’d like, no one bugged us, there was only one car that drove past us and it was at about 830 in the morning. Highly recommend. There’s no facility’s here but you are just north of some casinos and gas stations as well as showers about 15 minutes south of here in primm.

We spent here several nights, nice little camping - big garden in front of the hostel. Clean toilets and showers with hot water and good stream. Family is very nice, they invite all guests for BBQ in the garden and prepare excellent meat(4-5kinds) and potatoes. Good place to stay to explore Tarija. You can go by walk to the city centre or go by taxi(5b/pp).

Back right hand corner of the parking lot. (if facing the store from the front). Seems to be a few other people here now. So far so good.

Arrived late and fell asleep without checking out the stars :( several other campers here, no issues. Would definitely stay here again. Verizon service at 3 bars LTE currently but sometimes had 5G I think.

Awesome spot right on the water. Take the road further South as many other comments recommend. Had no issues getting stuck but can imagine you easily could if you too close to the water. Other campers nearby which made us feel nice and safe but still far enough away to feel secluded.

This is an outstanding place! 1000 Dalasi for a room as seen on the pictures. Breakfast (best in Westafrica) for 250 Dalasi. Bike parking is great and the courtyard with the mango tree sensational! I loved this place and would highly recommend it. Best price relation you will get in Serekunda.
Kim is a magnificent host and is really taking care about the place to keep it on european standard, except for the missing hot water. But we the water is warm anyway.

Prebooking recommended. Enjoy!

Stayed here for several nights enjoying the scenery and trying to stay out of the wind. The site we were on was close to a birm which helped reduce some of the wind. Picked up a lot of trash here, unfortunately.

Rv dump is free and on the South side in front of the Diesel pumps. They have a spigot with good pressure for flushing the tank.

Large parking lot, near the interstate. Interstate noise is noticeable but an easy on/off spot.

stayed 1 night. Store was closed when we arrived.

pudimos pasar 3 noches hermosas n este lugar, sin embargo hay bastante viento... seguro y gratis...

Nos cobraron por nivel 2 nuestra camioneta + 1 pasajero 1135 mex... dejamos foto de los precios actualizados

pasamos 3 noches súper seguras y tranquilas ... recomedado

Nos dejaron parquear en el estacionamiento junto a la marina, y usar gratis los baños y la ducha... muy amables

Paramos una noche acá, el italian coffe nos pasó su wifi y detrás de ese edificio hay un grifo con agua NO potable

El mejor lugar para parar en Puebla, los agentes super amables, nos ofrecieron el wifi, ducha y baños... Además nos dieron mapas de la ciudad por lo que salimos a conocer la ciudad súper tranquilos de que la camio quedaba segura...

Victor y Nora nos recibieron en su casa, nos sentimos súper tranquilos y aprovechamos a descansar y conocer la ciudad...

7$ to camp and use the pools and bought a fried fish for 5$ (fish soup is 3$) fast wifi, allowed to refill water and had a big pool to myself. Owner is a policeman from the nearby town

needed to filter or boil water when we were there due to recent bad weather and rain

we had a broken exhaust manifold. they dismounted the whole engine of our Mercedes Sprinter. qualified and very clean work, best free mechanic we met. Fair price, we can highly recommend. Speaks english.

Mot that mysterious - El Horno means The Oven.. I asked an old guy in San Javier and he said that it was used to slake limestone to create building lime - the old mortar binder before Portland cement.

I try by the same way as German he was pissed because I pay for the invitation and I sad maybe by Land I will do the visa in Germany :( sad

One of our favorite place in all our five months trip. View is absoluty amazing ! But you may have to be lucky (or patient) to see it. We spend an entire day in our van waiting the rain to stops. But the sunrise of the next morning was absolutely stunning and it worth it so much.

The access is difficult without a 4x4 but we did it with our combi. We had to push it several time and our clothes were muddy at the end but for us it's part of the fun. We were in March, so may be it's not doable in 2WD during the winter. We let you judge !

Dunes next to the Oued below the old fort. There are a few fishermen/ guardians living in the fort above. The dunes provide some shelter from wind. Also possible to camp further north up Plage Blanche. 4x4 required. The only people we saw around here were off roaders, army, and fishermen living all along the cliffs. We took the road behind plage blanche to arrive, it was extremely rocky hammara. Better to drive up the oued if it is dry enough and on plage blanche rather than through the desert. Anywhere around here is fine camping. Do not proceed on plage blanche south of this point- very soft sand to dead end before cap draa. Cap draa is accessible by very rough but not technical road on top of cliffs.

A perfect stop on the route up to Tete. Ulli is a warm and welcoming host - we used his equipped outdoor, covered kitchen and he arranged a couple of local beers for us to enjoy after driving the long and very bad N1 road! The garden is beautifully curated and there’s plenty of room for a 4x4 with roof tent. We slightly got lost finding the exact location so keep in contact with Ulli when arriving, he kindly came and found us! We paid 600mts per person for camping.

Nice Campesite with fireplace and cottages. Very friendly owners.
15 AUD p.P.

Horseriding ist also possible. Good and healthy horses. Trail riding with a nice view.
