Zebrabar

Very nice and welcoming Campsite close to the bordercrossing at Diama. We stayed there for about 8 days with our car and it was great. The staff and the owners are very friendly and helpfull. I can recommend eating at the camping restaurant as the food is very good and diverse. We will definitely come back here on our way back north.

We stayed at Zebrabar for 10 days (initially planned for 5) and enjoyed every single one of them. The location is beautiful, with great views over the Langue de Barbarie. Excellent place for a family (we stayed with four kids). Plenty of space, fresh air, and a calm, safe environment made it easy for everyone to feel at home. Morning walks along the coast quickly became part of our routine. Met many travellers crossing the continent and enjoyed their inspiring stories. Simple but delicious dinners, welcoming staff, and attentive owners made our stay even better. All in all, it’s a relaxed place where it’s easy to settle in — and to stay longer than planned.

We stayed at Zebra Bar for 13 days and it was the best place we have stayed in our 3 years of travel. The community around the camp is so nice and the staff are so friendly. Even if there was a language barrier like there was for us (little French) the staff were so accommodating and smiley to us. The owners Martin & Ursula took us under their wing, sharing all of their knowledge about Senegal, their story of how they came to found Zebra Bar (which was so inspiring) and no problem was too big for them. We really hope that one day we can return to Zebra Bar and in the meantime will tell everyone we know how amazing this place is. We miss it already!

Zebrabar is a fantastic campsite nestled in the unspoiled nature of Senegal’s National Park, offering a true oasis of peace and authenticity. The location is perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in nature, with stunning views of the lagoon and the opportunity to spot various bird species and local wildlife. The facilities are well-maintained, simple yet comfortable, making it an excellent choice for campers who appreciate nature without giving up basic amenities. The restaurant serves delicious meals made with fresh, local ingredients, turning every dining experience into a delightful discovery of flavors. One of the biggest highlights is the staff—always friendly, helpful, and attentive to every need. The owners and key staff members speak English, which makes communication much easier for international travelers. Zebrabar is the perfect place to unwind, explore the surrounding nature, and enjoy an authentic experience in Senegal. A true paradise for those seeking adventure and tranquility away from mass tourism. Highly recommended!

Its the perfect place for overlanders. With nice pitches and great views of trees and ocean. Theres play equipment for children and games for adults. The bathroom block is well designed for campers. The bar is nice and they were making a barbecue when we came. The only problem is the pitches are quite expensive at 5000pp.

We stayed here after 3 nights crossing the desert in Mauritania and it truly was an oasis. We could have stayed here for a week longer than we did as the facilities were just so good and made it so comfortable.

On the way from Mauritania to Gambia we were staying here and everything was so good that we came back here again on our way back home. Really nice chill place to recover after Mauritania or prepare before Mauritania 😄 Nice and helpful camping owners helped us to print the visa also. 10/10

Location is very nice, on the beach if you are lucky. What brings it down is that the prices of food and drinks are expensive. A beer is almost 3x more expensive than in the supermarket. That's okay, but water is 1500 (€2,30) a bottle while its 400 (€0,75) everywhere else. It was very hot weather and the closest other shop is 25 minutes walk. Camping was a bit expensive, but the crabs make it a problem if you are in a tent. In the night they will wake you up, walking against your tent. Ofcourse this is part of being at the beach. We did dine there once. The food was mediocre to say at best. And for what is was, very expensive. The owner is very helpful, but the man who does the paperwork was very rude. We put a number in the wrong column, and he got angry at us. Then he made a couple of mistakes to our advantage, that we told him but he was very mean. When we left we didn't have a good feeling.
