    Beautiful and impressive mosque accessible by cab along Corniche West road and down the bridge to beach / seaside. It is also worth stopping at the top of the road to see it from above and take beautiful shots as it is facing the ocean. There is a fish market down to the beach and locals enjoying different sports by the beach @ sunset.

    Very beautiful Mosque sitting on the Atlantic Coast. In front is a fishing village which is interesting as well.

    I must admit i havent been inside the mosque. Even without being i side, this particular part of Dakar is just out of the world. From sunrise to sunset, this us one place that takes ones breath away with its mere natural scenary. Best time - prayer time of course. Best time to take a picture early sunrise or sunset. Love this place!!

    Beautiful mosque to view from the road. Feel free to walk down the steps and go down to the beach for an up close look, however, if you're just site seeing, you can probably see all you need from up above. Please be respectful.

    Facing the Atlantic Ocean, the Mosque of the Divinity which was built in 1997 is a stunning piece of architecture as well as beautiful religious building. If you are intending on visiting, you will need to be dressed appropriately - even to get close to the mosque. I was wearing shorts, so that was not possible. But I still could appreciate the structure and it’s minarets from outside of the grounds.

    One of the most beautiful places in Dakar. There’s a quaint fishing village surrounding the mosque. Steps lead up to the Corniche above where swarms of people work out in the evenings. The mosque itself is a stunning piece of architecture. Near the beach is peaceful and idyllic.

    Very nice scenery: the mosque with this beautiful beach. You can even snorkel a little here. There are some beachfront small businesses that offer drinks or food (if you have enough time.)

    I performed Eid ul Adha prayer in this mosque. To be honest one my best mosque with beautiful view. For vehicle there is underpass road, for walk there are stairs. i preferred stairs. don't take your vehicle if you are using taxi, just ask them to drop on stairs and go enjoy by stairs.

    The Mosque of Divinity is a mosque located in Ouakam, Senegal. It is a structure with two minarets. The mosque provides a view of the Atlantic Ocean, as the mosque lies near the shore, at the Corniche-Ouest.

    Very beautiful mosque, we received a friendly welcome and were told the history of the mosque. Photography was allowed, but only through the open windows. No entrance for people of other faiths. No clothing regulations.

    A really nice visit to learn about the history of the Mosque. The Imam was nice to give me a tour and talk about the Mosque.

    A brilliant piece of architecture. The mosque is sits near the Ouakam beach and has stairs leading down to the mosque. The beach nearby is highly picturesque and has a fish market close by.

  • 5/5 Sara Della S. 5 months ago on Google • 52 reviews
    Beautiful colorful mosque, but to be honest the best part for me was the beach and little fishing port right next to it! No tourists at all, the beach is small with super clear water, very peaceful. Only fishermen at work!
