One of the most attractive spots in the region is the Casamance River, famous for its maze of picturesque coves and lagoons. It is dotted with small islands, lush mangrove areas, forests and a verdant estuary. It's a wonderful place for walking, cycling or canoeing. During the dry season, it becomes a refuge for millions of migratory birds.

Another must-see attraction is the superb Cap Skiring beach, with its fine white sand. A visit to the surrounding villages will enable you to meet the local people, who will always welcome you with a warm smile.

A visit to this region takes 3 days, giving you plenty of time to explore and enjoy all the wonders it has to offer.

Day 1 :
Your first day begins with an enriching visit to the Oussouye center for disabled women. There, you'll marvel at the creativity of the women who make exceptional handicrafts from meticulously hand-woven roast tree leaves.

Afterwards, you'll head to the village of Ségalène, where you'll meet passionate cashew growers and processors. They will enthusiastically explain the various stages of processing, from harvesting the fruit to the finished product.
Sur le chemin du retour, une étape incontournable vous attend : la rencontre avec le roi d’Oussouye. Vous aurez la chance privilégiée d’échanger avec lui et de découvrir les aspects fascinants de sa royauté, ainsi que les coutumes et traditions profondément enracinées dans la culture des Diolas.

Ces moments partagés au cœur de la nature et de la convivialité locale seront inoubliables.
