The bustling and colorful Senegal is one of West Africa’s most popular destinations and one of the safest countries in the region. Senegal boasts beautiful colonial architecture, secluded beaches blessed with world-famous surf breaks and remote riverine deltas teeming with wildlife. With a flight time of 6 hours and no time lag for the major European markets, France is the main source market for tourist arrivals, followed by pan-Africa (mainly for business and congress tourism) and Benelux.
