Tambacounda Travel Guide

Senegal

Tambacounda is an inland city in eastern Senegal, with a population of around 78,800. It is well away from the country’s Atlantic coastline, so it is better suited to travellers visiting the interior than to a beach holiday.

The city is served by Tambacounda Airport (TUD). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so coastal trips require travelling beyond the immediate area.
