Cap Skirring (Casamance)

Overview

Cap Skirring trades city energy for tropical hush: palm‑lined sand, warm water, and long beaches where the sandbanks do their quiet work between swells. When conditions align you’ll thread rippable shoulders with only seabirds for company, and when they don’t, you’ll still be in one of West Africa’s most relaxing corners.

Getting There

You can make the journey by bus through The Gambia—budget‑friendly but long—by coastal boat, or by plane if you value time over scenery. Whichever route you choose, arrive a little early for logistics and keep your documents handy at border checks.

Surf Notes

Forecast data is sparser than in Dakar and local knowledge counts. Ask at your lodge, walk the beach at different tides, and bring a repair kit and a backup board if you’re planning to roam. The payoff for the extra homework is solitude in the lineup and a horizon that feels all yours.
