As much as Lagos is known for being a very busy city, there’s more to it than just “busy”. It has some of the most exciting spots to chill and relax after a long week of tirelessly working. Here are some of the exciting spots you can visit by yourself, with family, or even friends:
- Elegushi Beach
The beach is undoubtedly one of the best places to visit if you love nature. Aside from the natural elements it provides for your comfort, there are also restaurants and bars where you can eat and relax. You would think that would be all you get, but wait till you hear that it also features water sports like jet skiing and beach volleyball. This private beach located at Lekki is an ideal spot for daytime enjoyment and nighttime relaxation.
- Leisure Sports Paintball
If you ever find yourself in a frenzy, confused about where to go with your family to have a memorable experience, Leisure Sports Paintball is one of the best places to consider. It is a place specially designed for a group of people to have the time of their lives. However, to access this goodness, you’d have to privately book ahead of time to secure a spot for yourself and your loved ones. There are two locations in locations – Lekki and Victoria Island, and they are open from Sunday to Saturday, 12 pm to 6 pm
- Dream Park And Gardens
When you think of variety, you think of Dream Parks and Gardens. This spot is located in Ikorodu and has provisions for both adults and children. It is not just a fun spot for all age ranges, it is a restaurant, a gym, a game center for kids, and a football match center.
