Dakar
Westernmost African capital
Dakar is the capital and largest city of Senegal, located on the Cap-Vert peninsula—the westernmost point of mainland Africa.
A major Atlantic port and commercial hub, it serves as a gateway between West Africa and the wider world.
The city lends its name to the Dakar Rally, a grueling off-road endurance race originally run from Paris to Dakar.
