Description of this activity

The motorboat ride in Ndayane offers an authentic experience, far from the tourist areas. Located between Popenguine and Joal, this fishing village is surrounded by an unspoiled coastline, lined with cliffs and rocky coves. From the beach, the boat leaves the shore to follow the coast after a short introduction to the itinerary. The trip lasts about two hours along the coast, revealing a succession of cliffs, small inlets, and fishing zones where local fishermen cast their nets. The guide provides commentary on the highlights of the coastline. Stops are planned for swimming or taking photos, and a light snack is served on board. The navigation is gentle, with calm seas usually in the morning. Along the way, you can see the red cliffs of Popenguine, the dunes near Toubab Dialaw, and sometimes seabirds nesting on the heights. It’s the perfect outing to enjoy a natural panorama and take a refreshing swim in a peaceful setting.

After the excursion, visitors can explore the Popenguine Nature Reserve, visit the village of Toubab Dialaw, or continue to Joal-Fadiouth, famous for its shell island.
