Holidays in Simal

Relaxation. Adventure. Relaxation. Adventure. Off to Simal but can't make up your mind what kinda getaway you're looking for? Don't get in a tizz! We'll help sort it out.

The popular city of Dakar is within reach of Simal. You'll find this busy centre 110 kilometres to the northwest.

Spend a few hours walking along the shore and hunting for shells at Bakau Beach or Cape Point Beach.

It's no secret that simply spending time in nature makes you feel happier and healthier. Keeping that in mind, why wouldn't you journey 18 kilometres out of Simal to Joal Forest? Parc National du Delta du Saloum, 50 kilometres away, is another recommended choice.

How about visiting Samba Dia Forest and the Salt Evaportation Pools? These brilliant attractions are very close to the middle of Ndangane, 10 kilometres to the southwest. Use this as a base for a while and start exploring!

Feel like going to State House, the Arch 22 and Fort Bullen? Make your way to Essau, 75 kilometres to the south, and set up base. These sights, as well as the Gambia National Museum and Albert Market, are all nearby.

Delight your taste buds and fill your Instagram feed with mouthwatering snaps by feasting on some of this destination's finest food and drink offerings. Just remember to hashtag 'yum'!

Are you fond of lamb? How about pea? Whether you're wild about them or not, they are two key ingredients you'll often find in dishes here.

While Simal offers no short supply of culinary comforts, you shouldn't overlook thieboudienne (fish, rice and tomato sauce) and yassa (spicy, marinated fish/chicken). Considered classic local dishes, you'll have to put them on your must-eat list if you really want to get a taste of this destination.

You're not supposed to count calories on holiday, right? So it's a fantastic excuse to satisfy your sugar cravings with some banana fritters, a popular dessert.

Don't let a difference in language scare you off! Make your trip to Delta de Saloum a more engaging one by learning a couple of expressions in the local language. 'Ça va? Comment ça va?Comment allez-vous?' can be very handy. It translates to 'how are you?'. One more often used phrase is 'Bonne journée !' ('have a nice day').

What better way to learn about the culture of a place than by getting swept up in a day of national celebration? There'll be loads of festivities organised for Independence Day on the 4th of April.

Before you say "Au revoir / À bientôt" to Simal, check your pockets for any stray change that you can spend on last-minute souvenirs.

Situated 110 kilometres to the northwest is Leopold Sedar Senghor International Airport (DKR), the nearest terminal. Ensure you have ample time to reach it.
