History
Initially, Diembéring was a fishing village. It is still so today, however tourism has opened up other possibilities.
Geography
The nearest localities are Koudioundou, Nikine, Bouyouye, Cachouane, Boucotte Wolof, and Mossor. Diembéring was built on sand dunes, among palms and towering trees of the Malvaceae family (likely Ceiba pentandra, one of many species widely called, ambiguously, 'kapok trees'). Diembéring is one of the few places where people speak Kuwaataay, a dialect of Jola. The beaches of this coastal village are popular with tourists. There is a mosque in the area, as well as a church where a Jola mass is sung each Sunday. A maternity hospital is run by a Spanish order of nuns.
