The Surfcamp Staff
Ngor Island Surf Camp couldn't function without our incredible team of local people. They make the magic at the camp. Together we'll keep you surfing, laughing and dancing. Our Chefs will keep you delightfully well fed with our brilliant rotating menu of Senegalese and fusion cuisine.
Marc & Awa- your hosts and owner/operators of the camp.
Marc is Australian. He's a qualified Skipper and has a postgrad in marine ecology, arts and music. His first surfing experience was at three years old when his father threw him in the ocean. He's still a frothing grom more than 40 years later. Awa is a professor of traditional Senegalese dance & music. She is also Director of Senegalese Arts & Culture at the camp. Awa will be your guide to learning more about Senegal's rich cultural traditions. We look forward to hosting you.
