The Gambia is a popular winter sun destination from the UK, with beach holidays around Banjul, Kololi and Senegambia, plus birdwatching on the River Gambia. It is a Yellow Fever risk country and YF vaccination is required for entry for travellers over 1 year old. NaTHNaC also recommends Hepatitis A, Typhoid and Meningitis ACWY for most travellers, with Rabies, Cholera and Hepatitis B for higher risk itineraries. Malaria is present year round across the whole country, so a prescription antimalarial is essential. Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is a NaTHNaC designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre. The clinic is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC premises 1123406, Naspram Pharma Limited) under Superintendent Pharmacist Sanjay Mukundkumar Patel (GPhC 2045157).
