Informations supplémentaires

Fadiouth Island, Senegal. The reason that Joal-Fadiouth is on the tourist map is because Fadiouth, the second half of this excitingly duplicitous town, is perched on an island that's made almost entirely of clam shells. This, coupled with a strong Christian influence, makes Fadiouth a slightly off-key destination (for Senegal at least), and even more interesting is a second clam-shell island, linked to Fadiouth by a second bridge, which is home to hundreds of Christian graves, each marked by a cross and a pile of shells. In such a predominantly Muslim country this whiff of Christianity is not only bizarre, it's positively welcoming.
