Ganvié By Night
An experience 95% of tourists never have.
During the day, Ganvié is loud and colorful. At night, it becomes something else entirely. The lights of the stilt houses reflect on the water. City noise disappears. Fishermen prepare their nets in silence. Most tourists never see this side of Ganvié. You can.
