Political and economic capital of Senegal since the country's independence in 1960, Dakar delights those who have the great idea of staying there for more than just a stopover. Its lively markets, its exuberant nightlife, its sites steeped in history, its craft villages but above all its authentic fishing villages, form a surprising kaleidoscope.
Located at the western end of the African continent and facing the Atlantic Ocean, Dakar unfolds, in striking contrasts, between modernity and authenticity.
