Lagos is known for its fast pace, vibrant markets, and legendary nightlife — but there’s a softer, more surprising side waiting to be discovered. If you look beyond the usual tourist spots, you’ll find a city filled with art, history, and hidden escapes.
Start your journey at Tarkwa Bay, a quiet beach perfect for swimming and picnics, accessible only by boat. Then visit the Nike Art Gallery, a multi-story building overflowing with paintings, sculptures, and textiles that tell Nigeria’s cultural story. For a taste of the city, explore street food stalls serving suya, puff-puff, and spicy grilled fish.
Lagos is a place where tradition meets modernity, where every street tells a story — if you take the time to listen.
