Senegal is a country located in West Africa with a population of over 16 million people. Its capital city is Dakar, which is also the largest city in the country. The official language of Senegal is French, but many Senegalese speak one of the country’s indigenous languages such as Wolof, Pulaar, or Serer.
The currency of Senegal is the West African CFA franc, which is also used in several other countries in West Africa. As of my knowledge cutoff in 2021, the exchange rate was approximately 1 Euro to 655 CFA francs.
The flight time from the UK to Senegal varies depending on the departure airport and the airline, but it is typically around 6-7 hours.
Senegal is in the GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) time zone, so it is the same time as London during the winter months. During the summer months, Senegal is one hour ahead of GMT.
The main airport in Senegal is the Blaise Diagne International Airport (airport code: DSS), located about 47 kilometers (29 miles) southeast of Dakar. The address of the airport is: Route de Ndiass, Diass, Senegal.
