About Kaolack Airport
Kaolack Airport is a small regional airport serving the city of Kaolack, the capital of the Kaolack Region in central Senegal. Located just east of the city centre, it provides domestic and regional charter connections and supports travel across the Sine-Saloum area.
The airport operates through a single, compact terminal building with a check-in hall, security screening area and waiting lounge. Its asphalt runway was extended in 2020 as part of a modernization project, allowing the airport to accommodate larger regional aircraft.
Kaolack Airport lies approximately 3 km from central Kaolack and is reached via the N1 and N4 roads. Taxis and pre-arranged transfers connect the terminal with the city, while Blaise Diagne International Airport near Dakar provides wider international connections.
With basic passenger facilities and a straightforward layout, the airport offers a practical gateway for regional travelers, business visitors and those heading to the salt-producing and agricultural areas around Kaolack.
