About this tour
This call is a short planning conversation about choosing between Lagos' beaches, based on years living a short walk from Meia Praia. I talk through the difference between the small coves near the old town and the longer, flatter beach further out, and answer your questions about timing.
After a brief sound check we go straight into your questions, comparing a few options depending on what you are looking for. I send a short list of names and a rough plan once the call ends.
It suits travellers trying to choose between Lagos' beaches before their trip, and anyone wanting a local's honest read rather than a general guidebook list. Nothing is booked during the call; it is a conversation only.
Included
- A 30-minute call with a local guide
- Honest tips on where to eat, stay and what to skip
- A short follow-up note with every place mentioned
Not included
- Bookings made on your behalf
- Phone or data charges from your provider
