Because of the tropical currents that bring warm water between mid-May and the end of December (23-29° Celsius) and more specifically during the winter period between June and November (25-29° Celsius), diving in Senegal resembles tropical diving a lot with good visibility: 15 meters minimum.
Outside this period, the temperature ranges from 16° to 23° Celsius with varying visibility conditions.
We offer: daily fun dives, discover scuba diving (minimum age : 10 years old), PADI and FFESSM/CMAS courses (minimum age : 12 years old), and scuba reviews.
