Senegal is a country of contrasts. Split between the deserts of the N and the lush tropical forests of the S, this country boasts a stunning array of sights, sounds and flavours.

The capital Dakar is itself a city of contrasts, perched on the tip of a beach-lined peninsula, this bustling city embodies elegance and street hustle all rolled into one. The busy streets, vibrant markets and glittering nightlife are all a feature of this city.

Most tourists to the country are motivated by the beaches. To the N and S of Dakar, wide strips of pristine white sand give a warm invitation to swimming and sunbathing, whether it be in the built-up resort zones or in the coast’s charming fishing villages.
