Sandaga - Dakar’s Main Market
Sandaga is located at the crossroads of Lamine Gueye Avenue and Avenue Emile Badiane. The market is noisy, crowded, energetic and alive with the smells of spices and fresh ocean catches. Travelers to this market will find products of all kinds including electronics, fabrics, shoes, foods, and refreshing drinks.
Sandaga market is the largest and busiest in Dakar. If you can’t find what you are looking for here, you probably don’t really need it. Many vendors arrive early in the morning with their fabrics, handicrafts and souvenirs, often staying late into the evening.
