Bar Beach Lagos, Nigeria.
Bar Beach was a very popular tourist site some
Years back especially during festive seasons.
It is on the Atlantic Ocean along Lagos shoreline.
Bar Beach is situated at Victoria Island, Lagos State
Nigeria.
A little history of the beach:
It was actually a venue where armed robbers and
Coup plotters were executed by firing squad in the
70’s.
From the 80’s it started overflowing its banks, which
resulted to flooding that led to loss of lives and properties.
In 2000’s the serving Governor of Lagos state, commissioned
EKO Atlantic city, 2016 precisely.
Eko Atlantic city is currently sited on Bar Beach with a plan of
Building residential and business district which will occupy 10million
Square meters with 8.5kilometer long sea wall.
It will be nice to visit Bar Beach when next you are in Lagos or Nigeria.
