ABOUT THE SURF CAMP
LOCATION AND SURF CONDITIONS
Every day our local surf guides will take you to the best of the 21 surrounding surf spots, suited to your level and the surf conditions on the day. Located on the most Western point of Africa, the Dakar peninsula attracts swell from the North, West and South offering potentially Africa's largest and most consistent swell window.
The waves here are consistent all year round - almost twice as consistent as France and Morocco in summer, and despite nearly half a century of surfing in Senegal, there has never been a shark incident on a surfer. We always do our best to make sure that our guests are at the best place at the right time; monitoring the local swell forecasts and most importantly getting an eyes-on report of the spots at first light. Surf trips at the camp run all day, so if dawn patrol isn't your thing, you can join the several other trips that leave throughout the day, either by 4x4 or by boat drop-off straight at the peak.
