Description of this activity

On the sunny coastline of La Somone, a seaside resort renowned for its calm lagoon and vast beach lined with filaos trees, surf initiation becomes a gateway to an authentic, serene, and welcoming Senegal. The local nature reserve, nestled in a lagoon populated by flamingos and pelicans, attracts all lovers of wildlife and open spaces. In the background, the craft market, Creole-style houses, the lively rhythm of fishermen, and the friendliness of the locals anchor the experience in everyday village life.

The lesson, led by a qualified instructor, combines theory and hands-on practice: basic techniques on the sand, balance exercises, gradual learning of board handling, and first take-offs on gentle waves. La Somone, known for its mild currents and natural setting, offers ideal conditions for beginners of all ages. During the break, visitors can explore the lagoon — take a canoe ride, enjoy birdwatching, discover local plants, or simply nap under the shade of coconut trees.

Different options are available for a tailor-made experience, either in small groups or private sessions, ensuring safety and personal attention. The experience often ends with a taste of local cuisine, a chat with artisans, or a sunset stroll along the pier facing the rolling waves of the Atlantic.
