Discover Mar Lodj island

Mar Lodj is an island in the Saloum Delta. Explore on foot at the pace of its villages and waterways. Connections and accommodation change: check transport and book directly with a genuinely operating place if you plan to stay overnight. The village's intertwined trees provide a starting point for learning about local history with residents; respect local customs and ask before photographing people. The photographs are archives from February 2006 showing the village trees and a nearby bolong; they do not guarantee current access conditions or bird sightings.

Things to see and do

  • Discover the village's intertwined trees and ask about their history.
  • Walk accessible paths while respecting residents and their living spaces.
  • Observe the mangrove from a distance and arrange your return crossing before setting out.
