    A very nice small island by the northern coast of Dakar. Not so much to see but can be a cool spot for a daytrip. The island can be covered in literally 30 minutes. For me the most fun spot was the beach where many small bars and restaurants can be found. Round trip by the big boat is 500 CFA per person. The boat ride is not very comfy but doesn't take more than 5 minutes.

    Great little island if you want to escape the city. One of the best day trips one can do while in Dakar.

    It is a really nice island. If you come to Dakar, Senegal, I recommend you to visit. The beach is beautiful and the alleys are very pretty. The sea water is very clear and beautiful, but be careful not to sting your feet with sea urchins while swimming.

    Pretty little island that can be reached in 10 minutes by boat from Ngor beach in Dakar. There are no means of transport on the island, you get around on foot. A couple of hours of visit is enough, if you don't want to extend it for an extra hour and take advantage of a lunch by the sea in one of the delicious restaurants on the beach. There are some places with nice murals.

    Ile Ngor is a beautiful isle with gorgeous beaches, great beachside restaurants, and opportunities to buy souvenirs without pressure. We spent the day there and had a fabulous time.

    Small little island that you reach by boat from mainland. You can winder the streets and get some beautiful views from the top. The beachfront gets crowded though and your feet will get wet when disembarking the boat. Would definitely recommend just spending a few hours chilling here.
