♫♬ CHRISTMAS IN LAGOS: WHAT TO DO, WHERE TO GO THIS SEASON...♩♪


Is this going to be my first Christmas in Lagos? No! But it is going to be my first Christmas in Lagos as an adult! There's a whole lot of difference. As a child Christmas was about what your parents, uncles, aunts, big cousins e.t.c could do for you-it was dependent on them! As an adult, you're OYO: On Your Own! I wouldn't claim to know all the hot spots in Lagos, but I can recommend places and activities, and you can recommend too by leaving your comments!
PLACES TO VISIT
  • LEKKI LEISURE LAKE - Lekki lake is great for physical activities like Jet Skiing, I loved it the last time I was there and I believe you can make a day out of this. See the REVIEW HERE
  • LEKKI CONSERVATIVE - If you're interested in nature, this place is definitely for you. The last time I went there people were camping out. How about you take your family out and pack a picnic? It will be something different. See the REVIEW HERE

  • TERRAKULTURE - There should be some plays showing this season, the last one I saw was London Life Lagos Living and it was so much fun- hilarity! Maybe you should see a stage play? 
  • COCONUT BEACH - The Coconut Beach in Badagry is a beautiful beach in the coastal town of Badagry, West of Lagos. The beach is attractive set in an area surrounded by coconut trees! See the beautiful scenery below.
RESTAURANTS TO DINE AT
  • RADISSON BLU - I love their Buffet and they do have variety in their menu so if you're looking for an all you can eat, oya check them out! see the REVIEW HERE
