Stay, chill, work n surf!
Our remote working community
Join up for amazing surf trips to the surrounding breaks, or team up and head away on epic overnight surf chasing safaris during your off-work days.
To recover your muscles from all the surfing, we recommend joining for some yoga up on the roof-top. Enjoy the yoga class with an amazing 360 view of all the waves surrounding Ngor, and not to forget, a view of the stunning sunsets.
Our Coworking Space
The Wi-Fi is more than sufficient for video conferencing and downloading files. However, many remote workers at the surf camp choose to buy a cheap 4G data package on a local sim card. This way they make sure they're covered if their connectivity needs exceed what the camp Wi-Fi is able to provide.
It is important to note that the island is entirely solar-powered, meaning that all charging for laptops and mobile phones is done at the dedicated charging station in the living room. Electronic devices cannot be charged in your room. This is not something to be alarmed about, people quickly adapt to the logistics.
Finally, while the workspaces described above have been popular with plenty of remote workers, they are shared spaces, and other surf camp guests may hang out in those areas without doing any remote work.
The Surf near Dakar, Senegal
Surrounding Ngor Island there are 20 different surf spots. Every day at the camp we check the conditions and run surf trips to the best spots throughout the day. So once you're finished with the workday, you can enjoy a 4x4 or boat drop-off, right at the peak.
Since the waves around Dakar mainly break over reefs, this may not be the best Coworksurf location for complete beginners. But if you already got some surf skills, and are looking for a wave paradise where you can get some work done. This is the place for you.

I spent an incredibly nourishing 6 weeks at the surf camp, remote working, surfing, centering. I will return. I couldn't recommend it higher. The island is unique, a short boat ride (swim and/or SUP trip) to the dynamic and artistic capital, yet you live in the peaceful quiet of a traditional village without cars or roads, surrounded by the Atlantic ocean on the western-most tip of the continent, with an excellent left and right reef/point on your doorstep. The camp is at once elegant, simple, off-grid. The staff are wonderful, kind, attentive, human. Shared dinners are beautiful moments to reflect on the day, and connect with Pierre and the enchanting characters attracted to this special place. You're invited to be yourself, to opt in and out of surfing and cultural activities throughout the days, to be incredibly social or to disappear into your work or private meditation on the roof terrace.
