From March 2026 we fly the Bissau ↔ Cap Skirring route with 2 fixed weekly flights (Tuesday and Friday) plus extra weekend flights. 45 minutes on the Piper PA-28 or Cessna 210 Centurion from OXB to CSK.

Why Cap Skirring? Casamance is Senegal's green jewel: tropical, culturally distinct from the arid north, 20 km of unbuilt Atlantic beach. Cap Skirring is the gateway — well-connected airport, Club Med, small family lodges, world-class sport fishing.

Schedules and prices Departures Tue/Thu/Sat/Sun from Bissau at 09:30 on the PA-28 (65,000 CFA/pax). Extra flights Fri/Sat at 16:30 on the Cessna 210 (85,000 CFA/pax) — ideal for anyone wanting dinner in Cap Skirring.

Compared to the alternatives - By car: 6 hours via Ziguinchor, Mpack/São Domingos border, dirt roads for half the trip. - By ferry + bus: 8-10 hours combining several transports. - With Air Bijagos: 45 minutes, no transfers, no borders.

Documents Valid passport required. ECOWAS citizens don't need a visa. Europeans neither for stays under 90 days. Arrive at the airport 60 minutes early for the international flight.

Hotel packages From summer we're launching flight + hotel packages with partners in Cap Skirring. From 145,000 CFA flight + 2 nights. Subscribe to the newsletter to get the news before anyone else.
