Where Senegal slows down.
Somone, Bandia, Saloum: choose a nature stop for the time you have.
Leydimen · 7 September 2026
Somone: a pause
The lagoon offers a natural setting on the Petite Côte. We suggest allowing time to observe rather than rushing through activities. Check arrangements for any boat outing with a local professional.
Bandia: prepare your visit
Before travelling, contact the reserve to confirm the visit arrangements: vehicle, guide, total price and access. The presence of a species in a reserve never guarantees a sighting during your visit.
Saloum: a stay, not a quick detour
The delta brings together mangrove and waterway landscapes. We recommend a dedicated stay with a base chosen in advance. The UNESCO marker is not a landing stage; confirm your arrival point separately.
