Ever gone on a surfing holiday? Do you know how to surf?
Geographically, Senegal is the perfect location for surfing because the country lies at the edge of the Indian Ocean and gets sea waves from the North, the Northwest and the South. The best time for the experienced surfer to visit the country is from December through June. If you’re still a learner then you can surf throughout the year. The water’s temperature is also quite favorable throughout the year as Dakar has a tropical climate.
