Diofior

Fatick, Senegal

Why visit Diofior?

Diofior is a town in the Sine-Saloum area of Senegal's Fatick region, roughly between Joal-Fadiouth and Fatick, with a 2023 population of about 12,800. The town's Serer population forms the core of the local community in this historically Serer heartland. Diofior's modern form dates to 1925, when the colonial administration grouped a cluster of surrounding hamlets into a single village for sanitation and administrative purposes — a founding it marked with a centenary in 2025.
