Cacheu is a small city in northwestern Guinea-Bissau.

[edit] Get in

With public transport from Bissau, take a sept-place to Canchungo, then change to another for Cacheu. Roads have been renovated in 2007 and are in very good condition.

It should be possible to take a canoa from Cacheu to São Domingos, not on Sundays however, unless you pay for the whole canoa yourself.

• Tarafes de Cacheu Natural Park
• The little picturesque fort was used to ship slaves to the Americas. There are some old bronze statues inside the fort. If the door is locked, ask around, the friendly guy who has the key lives close-by.

[edit][add listing] Eat

There are some small restaurants at the harbour, serving rice with something - but probably only open for lunch. Otherwise you'll have to buy bread and canned food and cater for yourself.

[edit][add listing] Sleep

The hotel next to the fort was being renovated in 2007 and ought to open some time soon. Otherwise, the only option is the national park, which is outside town and with big rats in the rooms. Otherwise, ask around in town and someone will probably know someone, who can arrange accommodation.

Alternatively, take a car back to Canchungo or Bissau and spend the night there, there are better hotels and restaurants in Canchungo than Cacheu.
