Camilla looked elegant in a green kaftan-style top with white trousers as she attended the engagement at McCarthy Square, Banjul.
The 71-year-old completed the outfit with an eye-catching cherry print clutch bag. And the duchess carried a delicate white umbrella to shield herself from the sun.
Charles looked typically smart in a grey suit as he attended the royal engagement with his wife on the second day of their overseas tour.
Camilla and Charles appeared to be enjoying the welcome ceremony and the pair smiled as they sat next to each other.
The couple were joined by Gambia’s President Adama Barrow for the event, which was attended by crowds of well-wishers.
It comes after the couple received a warm welcome as they landed in The Gambia on Wednesday.
The trip is the first time the couple have officially visited the country, which re-joined the Commonwealth this year.
The pair will go on to visit Ghana on November 2 and Nigeria on November 6 for their royal tour.
