The Point of no return is an island that can only be accessed by a boat so brace up, this even made it more attractive to me. I love adventures. So the boat cruise took less thn 5 minutes and we are off to Gberefu Island where the point of no return is located. I must confess its a beautiful island., This island alone can generate billions for the Nigerian government yearly. It has lots of history and many people abroad can trace back their roots to this Island.
On reaching this Island we headed straight to the original slave route which is a 30 minutes walk to the point of no return

1. The boat
2. The Gberefu Island
3. Original Slave Route
4. Gberefu island and the road to the point of no return


Those guys actually make a lotta money, especially during the 2nd term of school session, cos most schools visit there for excursion.

Some schools even spend more than one day there, cos the attractions are JUST TOO MUCH.

Downside: The very bad road leading to Badagry, I hope the governments do something about it... And most importantly, for a city close to the sea, the fishes and coconut are not cheap (I think this is the most annoying part)

If LV, Nevada can survive through tourism, why not this place? If some Caribbean countries can survive through tourism why not this place?
Imagine big hotels, resturants/eateries, casinos, movies theaters in this place!!
Oh!! Nigeria!! Who do you like this??

I have heard a lot about the Point if no return in Badagry and I couldn't wait to visit this amazing destination. This place was the hub of slavery and history had it that over 2 million slaves were sold off this island. I am a lover of art, nature and history and I think destination gives a mixture of the three.

I can travel anywhere for adventure and I set off to visit Badagry.

So we set off from Lagos as early as 8am, we went through Iyana Iba from Iyana Ipaja this is to beat the crazy Mile 2 traffic , then from Iyana Iba we headed straight to Badagry. This is one of the craziest journey I have ever embarked on, It leaves you thinking and annoyed at the same time. But I won't talk about that. Then had one of the longest and tiring drive. Then finally we got to Badagry. YAY!!!

Now the sight of the Badagry roundabout will make you forget the worries and the hurdle of getting there. On the roundabout lies the Sato drum statue. You don't need anyone to tell you this town is a peaceful one. from the roundabout, we took a left turn, straight ahead is the way to Seme Border.
Then we drove down to he Badagry slave port.

1. You will see a lot of these funny looking vehicles which are mostly used in conveying goods from neighbouring countries to Nigeria and vice versa
2. The sato drum Statue
3. less than 5 minutes drive from the sato drum statue is the fisherman statue
4. Badagry Slave port
