You left out the father of all the beaches in Lagos."La campagne" beach is the best of all!
Meanwhile, entry fee is 6k. It's worth it!

Where de hell do u now put baracuda beach?

I don’t want to derail this beautiful thread, we are both going in circles and you keep thinking the beaches have to be like Miami before Lagos beaches can be more utilized.

As I said before, Nigerians might be going to the beaches before my ancestors but how many? Most of the beaches are dirty and poorly maintained, for some, the access to get there can be treacherous or the agberos that are posted there. If enough people do not go, how much money can they make from entrance fees? You just want to make this tribal and argue, deep down you know Lagos coastlines have not lived up to its potential.

I don’t think you know what you are talking about. How else can beach owners make money if not from entrance fees and vendors? You want them to build hotels on the beach and invite foreigners. Then when they stop you from going to the beach because you look like ashewo coming to disturb the hotel occupants and foreigners you will start crying and protesting. I have traveled to countries that rely on tourism, it’s not as glorious as you make it sound. In fact it’s terrible for the locals. They can’t enjoy their beaches without harassment. Things get so expensive and the local boys and girls have a high rate of prostitution

op e dey forbid u to mention bar beach?

koladebrainiac:

---------------------

The Bar Beach was a beach on the Atlantic Ocean along the shorelines of Lagos, situated on Victoria Island. For a while, it was the most popular beach in Nigeria especially when Lagos was the capital of the country.

In 2003, the idea for a modern city on the Atlantic coast was publicly discussed. It would be sited on what used to be Bar Beach, out of reclaimed land. It would be called Eko Atlantic City, a residential and business district “standing on 10 million square metres of land reclaimed from the ocean and protected by an 8.5 kilometre-long sea wall"

In 2008, the construction of the new city began.

As of May 2009 while the site was being dredged, about 3,000,000 cubic metres (3,900,000 cu yd) of space had been sand-filled and placed in the reclamation area, while about 35,000 tonnes of rock have been delivered to the site.

In 2016, Eko Atlantic City was commissioned by Lagos governor Akinwumi Ambode.

The Eko Atlantic project has been criticized for having a design flaw that may contribute to continuing flooding in Lagos because of its being "highly susceptible to rising tides, as it is based on an artificial sandbar directly adjacent to the ocean." A storm surge in the exact area where the Eko Atlantic’s construction was taking place reportedly killed 16 people. There have been other equally dangerous flooding in Lagos blamed on the new construction project.

No. Just spent few hours then went back to Lagos. The place felt like another country with the kind of distance and bad road.

Thats why i said i cant come back same day when i visit a beach in Lagos....unless its close to my place of residence.

PoliteActivist:
How about Bar beach

No more bar beach

Lovely. I hope they are as beautiful as they look on photo?

AntiBrutus:
Been to Atican, Elegushi and Oniru...

The road to Atican is really bad, too sandy and gallopy. The beach itself was okay. I think we paid 1k each to get in.

I found Elugushi crowded, with lots of juveniles. This one collected N500 or so.

Oniru was just there.

I think Takwa Bay is cool, but I didn't like the idea of moving across water to get there. So, I boycotted this trip.

Took a picture of the water at Atican.
My friend got in, I didn't.

Na you get those fat thighs?

We both know you didn’t mean this. LOL. A lot of Nigerians go to those beaches every weekend! It has been that way for years! I don’t think you live in Nigeria. Do you know how populated Lagos is? A lot of them go to the beach every weekend. If beach owners sell their beaches they can’t even make as much as they make now. When that money they sold it for finish, they will start making life hell for beach goers.

I stay in badagry and am one of the tourist, you can contact me for more info. 09050492572

lol don’t project your lack of comprehension unto me. I posted my comments and it’s your choice to comprehend and respond. It’s not my fault you misunderstood and you went off on some wild tangent about prostitutes and ancestral lands. Lagos beaches still have a lot of work to do to reach its full potential.

Modified: OP, apologies for derailing this thread, I hope people will continue to post beautiful pictures of Lagos beaches.

I didn’t misunderstand you. You didn’t expect a backlash on the dumb idea. No one ever said tourist and meant locals. Except you don’t know the meaning of tourist. You were obviously judging from the amount of people who visit the beach by the pictures.

Sisi yellow, you got fine fresh laps.

Thanks broda Chronique.

Skelewu:

Yes

lol where is the backlash? From one ignorant person that doesn’t even know the meaning of the word ‘tourist’? You thought tourist meant foreigners, I only mentioned ‘locals’ when I said “Lagos beaches should be developed first for people that live in Lagos to enjoy before you worry about foreign tourists looking for prostitutes”. My posts are up there on this thread, go back and read them.

When people say Tourists in any tourism location, the target is foreigners. I am tired of this dumb argument. If you don’t know this then you don’t know what you are saying at all. That is why they say tourists and locals. I don’t think the locals complained to you that the beaches are not good enough so they don’t go to the beaches. Again, you started lying about your intentions when I pointed out your intentions. Anyway, arguing with you is pointless. Nothing you can do.

Tourists =\= Foreigners, typing otherwise will NOT make it true. That’s how facts work. Next time before you argue with someone’s post, take the time to actually read and comprehend, fact check your opinions, then post a rejoinder. Do not be in a haste to be emotional or confirm your biases and start going on a tangent that has absolutely nothing to do with what the poster said. It serves this thread no purpose.

I actually agree with you, this back and forth makes no sense, there is a break in communication, you seem not to understand my posts.

Where did you see news that Lagos beaches suffer from lack of patronage? You are saying trash. What you meant is foreign tourist dollars.

So are there no other States in Nigeria that have well maintained beaches aside from Lagos State

How about Rivers States, Delta and Cross Rivers States?

Even People wen nor come from Lagos dey answer Lagosians.. Na wa

Not just the road, I don't like the water bank, it's too dirty IMO. I think Sultan (Badagry) Beach should have a good place on the list. I've been there twice and I love it always, hoping Sanwo Olu And Buhari do that road soon so I can go there again this year.

Delta and Rivers state don't have accessible beaches along the Atlantic. Akwa Ibom has a very beautiful beach with miles of white sand can't remember the name, it's the longest sand beach in West Africa, some stretch of it is maintained by Mobil. The one in Calabar is not too shabby.

Oluwolex2000:
Lagos, the most populated and the most economically buoyant city in Africa, is a place of various beauties.

The city is located right by the Atlantic Ocean, thus there are various beaches in Lagos, in various parts. With a wide array of beaches to choose from in the coastal city of Lagos, it may be a little confusing to decide which to visit.

On getting to the beach, you’ll be required to pay an entry fee of N1,000 after which you might be requested to pay an extra N200 for parking, but trust me, it’s worth every penny spent.

I didn't even take a good look at the water bank, not like I took a good look at anything though. Would add the Sultan to future to-do-list. Lol, hopefully he delivers @ Sanwo Olu.
