Traditional-style fishing in Senegal Petite Côte is an ideal place to try your hand at sea fishing. © Loic Lautard
The beaches of the 'Petite Cote' start 50 miles south of Dakar and stretch all the way down to the Saloum. They are suitable for swimming. Drop in at Toubab Dialao, located at the bottom of a creek and framed between red cliffs - the view is remarkable at sunset. Or, stop off at Popenguine, a traditional pilgrimage site, because of its miraculous cave in which an image of the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to a group of fishermen.
