ADA mic com golf club in ADA Osun state is a nice place, a good honeymoon destination and cheap. You can also take a cab to Erin Ijesha Water fall (45mins), i.e. you can kill 2 birds with a stone**

Kainji Park nko? Gurara dam? those resorts at akodo nko?

I don't know about Kainji Park but I have been to Gurara severally. Gurara is a nice place but no residential apartment in the vicinity except for minna (50 minutes drive away from gurara) or lambata ( 20 minutes drive away from gurara). Gurara is lovely place to be.

I have a list of honeymoon destinations here in Nigeria. But i will love to know your opinion and current assessment.

1. Obudu Mountain Resort, Cross river
This is probably the 'most respected' tourist site in Nigeria. It is also ideal for a honeymoon get away. The Obudu Plateau offers peace, quiet, pampering and adventure.

2. Okomu National Park and Osos Hills in Edo State.

3. Ikogosi warm spring amd resort Ekiti

4. La Campagne Tropicana Beach Resort Lagos

5. NLNG Residential Area in Bonny Island, Rivers State. Also Finima Beach and JV Camp

6. Badagry. This is a popular destination with multiple side attractions. In my opinion one of the best in Lagos. In Badagry you have beaches, museums, historical buildings and the reminders of Slave trade. You can also get some pretty decent hotels.

7. Yankari Games Reserve. Some of us are a little scared of travelling to the North but trust me Yankari is great. Recent research reveal that it has been rennovated and revived.
You can get to view a whole range of wide animals in Yankari.

8. Kanji Lake National Park.

9. Mic com Golf Resort, Ada, Osun State.

Also discovered this place called: Nike Lake Resort in Enugu. It has a natural lake. It is quiet and lovely.


Feel free to state your opinion or comment.
Have you paid a visit to any of these sites?

nice one @ op. bt giv us pix pls.

I've visited almost all the places on the list and I've not even had my honeymoon. Oh well! sad

About Kainji National Park, nothing exciting. The place has lost its glory. Just visit the Dam and jet off to Yankari.

Erin-Jesha Waterfalls is another beautiful place if you are a lover of nature. Peaceful, serene and exciting. But be careful when you climb up the hills. I couldn't go past the 4th.

The list will not be complete without the
Mambilla Plateau in Taraba State.
This place is simply breath taking and lovely

Fascinating features:

- Very extensive, lush, green, mountainous grasslands...giving an impression of series of mountains covered with a lovely green rug
- Cool climate all year round (much like the cold seasons in Europe, so much that you dare not bath with cold water in Mambilla except you want to freeze, for real!)
- No mosquitoes in Mambilla (of course, the cold climate does not favour their growth)
- when you talk or breathe heavily in Mambilla (especially in the mornings, but not exclusively so) you often see 'mist' coming from your mouth/ nostrils, exactly similar to what is noticed during winter in other climes.
- Many natural waters springs
- Many wild animals, especially monkeys roaming freely on the mountain sides
- Extensive beautiful softwood plantation, with lumbering activities
- Houses Super Eagles' high altitude training camp
- Beautiful tea plantation and a tea factory
- You can actually walk into Cameroon from Gembu grin
u didn't mention hotels...

Don't waste your time pondering. Just go to almost anywhere in Ghana for your honeymoon and you will not regret it. My company sent me there to complete a project a long time ago and I could not believe I was in an African country. Guess where I'm going to build my house for retirement?

I absolutely concur with ur points. The Mambila plateau could very easily be Nigeria's number one tourist destination if only it can be developed and reshaped by PPP effort. I was dir during my NYSC days in 2012 & the experience was breathtaking. The Mambilla plateau is actually 2000m above sea level and the temperature is pretty colder than that of jos. I hope to be there again some days in the nearest future.

Someone once said Taraba state has the potential to be the richest state in Nigeria.

I served there and cannot agree less.
