Here’s a photo of the beach in that little town. I thought the beach was fine – uncrowded, clean compared to Dakar beaches, lots of rolling waves. Yes, there was the slight whiff of burning trash every now and again and yes, we did see a stray dog doing her business in the sand. But that’s inescapable Africa. I had a beach chair, sun and a cold Coke. I was happy.
