The romantic day in Saly combines what the resort does best, a calm sea and a sheltered coastline, with what you expect from a day for two: a couples’ spa, lunch and a glass of champagne, all included. An escape for a couple’s anniversary, a surprise or a honeymoon.

A day for two, from beach to spa

It all begins at a private beach in Saly, with sun loungers side by side, soft towels, a sunny or shaded spot and a view over the calm sea of the Petite Côte. The morning is for swimming, walking hand in hand, reading, with short breaks for fresh juice or local drinks, depending on the menu on site.

In late morning or the afternoon comes the couples’ spa session: a simultaneous relaxing massage, body or facial treatments, aromatic oils or local plants, in a dimly lit, intimate space. At lunchtime, the included meal varies with the day’s programme: grilled fish or seafood, reworked Senegalese specialities, fresh salads or vegetarian menus, with a glass of champagne per person.

What to plan for

The private sun lounger is reserved all day, and lunch and the glass of champagne are included. Additional drinks are optional. Bring sun cream, swimwear and comfortable clothes. The treatments can be adapted to fragile or sensitive skin. Booking is strongly advised, especially at weekends.

If you are a couple from the capital, Saly is about 80 km away: a romantic weekend you can reach in a single journey. If you are a couple on holiday, it is the moment to slow down in the middle of a stay.

Saly on the Petite Côte

The resort stretches along the Petite Côte, with a protected shoreline and a lively but sheltered beach.

Extending the day for two

For the end of the day, the Somone lagoon invites a pirogue ride at sunset, and Saly’s craft village is the place to find a souvenir. Another moment of relaxation is possible with a massage or a facial.
