Description of this activity

The motorboat trip in Dakar is done by speedboat, leaving from the Plateau port, for 2 or 3 hours along the city’s emblematic coasts. Crew, welcome cocktail, nibbles platter and a musical atmosphere are included, as a couple package or for a group of 6 to 8 people.

The Dakar coastline aboard a speedboat

The outing follows a precise outline. A welcome from the crew at the Plateau port, a safety briefing, then departure along the coast: the cliffs of the western Corniche, the Mamelles lighthouse, Soumbedioune Bay, the Mosque of the Divinity and, depending on sailing conditions, the waters around Gorée Island. The captain adapts the route and the pace to the weather, and stops may be planned for swimming, taking photos or admiring the panorama.

The speedboat is private for a couple; a package for a group of 6 to 8 people also exists. The price is per person and depends on the length and the make-up of the party: a 2-hour sea ride or a 3-hour cruise, for a couple or for a group of 6 to 8 people.

What is included

The captain and crew, a welcome cocktail, a nibbles platter with soft drinks and water, a musical atmosphere, friendly games and swimming accessories (floats, goggles) are included. A dedicated waitress serves during the outing. Departures take place in the morning and in the afternoon. Bring a hat, sunglasses and sun cream.

Dakar from the sea

Seen from the sea, Dakar shows a different profile: the Corniche cliffs, the Mamelles, Soumbedioune Bay. If you live here, the package makes an outing for two or with friends that makes a change from restaurants and beaches; if you are visiting, it is a way to take in the city at a glance, without driving across it. The Mamelles lighthouse and the Mosque of the Divinity can be recognised from the water, and Gorée Island may appear offshore depending on conditions.

Extending the outing

The outing stays at sea: it does not land at Gorée, but you can combine it with a visit to the island afterwards. To go further, the island excursions let you go there by boat, the cruises and boat hire offer other packages, and sport fishing at sea offers another way to be on the water.

Where does it leave from?

From the Plateau port or Soumbedioune Bay, depending on the departure point chosen.

How long does the outing last?

2 hours for the sea ride, 3 hours for the cruise.

Can I swim?

Yes, when the sea is calm, the boat stops in safe areas for a short swim. The accessories (floats, goggles) are on board.

How many people are on board?

A couple (2 people) or a group of 6 to 8 people depending on the package.

Do we go to Gorée?

The outing stays at sea and may pass near the island depending on conditions. You can combine it with a visit to Gorée afterwards.
