ISLAND OF GOREE


Situated 4 kms off Dakar, at a 20-minute crossing by boat
(referred to as "la chaloupe") (schedules to be checked), the Island of Goree is one of the most captivating places in Senegal.
Its main characteristic is the perfect homogeneity of the architecture and, except for scores of black children playing in the streets, the baobabs and bougainvilleas growing here and there, the visitor could be inclined to think he is in a village of Provence.
