Lagos might be the largest city in Africa, but isn’t devoid of nature, and visitors can experience something of the wilderness at Lekki Conservation Centre, an expansive urban nature park on the coast. A canopy walkway – a long, narrow suspension bridge that’s not for the faint of heart – carries you above wetlands inhabited by tropical birds, monkeys and crocodiles. The nature park also features a tree house and family picnic area, but visitors are advised to keep an eye on their food or else risk losing it to the resident monkeys. Lufasi Nature Park is an animal rescue center and nature preserve in Lekki that welcomes visitors to stroll among rare native ekki trees and see animals, some in enclosures and some roaming freely. There’s a bird and butterfly garden, forest adventure walk, fern garden and playground for children. Visitors are welcome to bring their own food and drinks or purchase some inside.
Nigeria may not be known for its surfing culture, but Tarkwa bay is starting to put it on the map, as even some of the pros are starting to flock to this hidden but increasingly popular surfing gem. As it’s located on a small artificial island, Tarkwa is only accessible by a 30 minute boat or water taxi from Victoria Island (Mekwe Jetty is one of several places to catch a lift) Didn’t pack your board? That’s cool! It’s still a fun beach (you can rent a chair) and a worthwhile place to visit in Lagos. Plus, watching the surfers at work is always a great thing to do! N200 entrance fee (additional costs for chairs, tables and tent rental). Discover additional info at Short Let serviced apartments.
