It really depends on what area of the U.S you are going to but....I'll break it down for you though.... When I was in the Navy.. we left from San Diego, CA, it took us about a month and some days to get to the African sea....but we also stopped at couple of other places....traveling by sea can be f-ing awesome but..it depends on what type of ship you are traveling on...people you are traveling with....whether or not the are properly stocked with food and drinks....and how many stops they make at other locations.......but I would advice you to take a plane instead because a round trip plane ticket is only about $880-950..which is not much at all.......but I love the sea

I don't think you'll ever find a commercial ship that goes from Nigeria to the United States. That makes no sense at all given the ridiculous distance and time.

Your best bet would be to get in touch with a cargo ship and ride as a crew member and maybe you'll have a chance.

If Nigerians can't be issued visa to travel by air, they should at least be given visa to travel by sea. Besides it is much easier to smuggle yourself into the ship without getting caught rather than the aeroplane where measures will be taken to prevent your exit to the US. And if you are caught in the plane the humiliation is so much than the ship. Its just that they might throw you inside the water if you are caught in the ship and there you can continue the rest of the journey to the US.

I'm sure people traveled overseas regularly before airplanes were made.

@OP, if its for adventure as you rightly pointed out, why not travel smaller distances/route? But if you insist, your best bet would be to travel with one of the numerous cargo companies as part of the crew members. I doubt if you'll find a commercial shipping company solely dedicated to transporting of passengers.

I know that in life we take big risk to survive but why do you want to travel by sea? is it that you are trying to be economical or you enjoy the sea breeze or that you enjoy 50days journey

op, my advise is for you to go to badagry. Ask for mr livinstone, he is the m.d of black star liner owned by the late marcus mossiah garvey, give him your particulars & sign all doted lines, just negotiate because there is no fix price, but make sure you carry at lest 20kg of GARRI & 5kg of KULI KULI along. Goodluck.

i.meller:
Firstly, you shouldn't think of sea travel as a way to beat an air fare - it isn't. Unlike flying, it can be a richly rewarding experience. You should expect to pay a minimum of about $1,500 per person each way, depending on the route and the cabin.

Sea travel is only cheaper than flying when you consider the many days you will spend on board (which has to be compared to a hotel stay ashore) with three full meals a day and a private cabin. And drinks on board cargo ships are not only tax and duty free, but also profit free (what is call bonded stock).


You can search for Lucan Travel cruise line and write them an Email.
meaning it's possible to travel by sea to the US?
