Nouâmghâr

Overview

Nouamghar is a special kind of fishing village. Here the Imragen used strange techniques to catch fish. They stroke the water with wooden sticks and then the doplhins came closer to the coast, driving smaller fish into the nest of the fishermen.

Nouamghar is about 155 kilometer north of Nouakchott, on the beach "road" to the Banc d'Arguin.
