The Thriving Commercial Hub of Africa

With around 17.5 million inhabitants, Lagos is the largest city in Africa in terms of population and GDP, and one of the fastest growing cities in the world. From its inception it has been a port city, built on a collection of islands, it has expanded inwards onto the mainland giving it its two main districts. The name 'Lagos' was given to the settlement by the Portuguese, meaning 'lakes'.

When to visit Lagos

Lagos has a tropical wet and dry climate with two rainy seasons in a year, between April and June, and then in October and November. The dry season, from December to March, brings with it the Harmattan winds from the Sahara Desert. It can be both windy and dusty during this time. Lagos celebrates a range of both Christian and Muslim festivals such as Christmas, Easter, Eid Al Maulud and Eid Al Fitri. There are also several non-religious festivals such as the Lagos Black Heritage Festival in May and the Eyo Festival.
