Calabar Carnival also takes place in December which has a great array of colourful parades throughout the month as well as music and cultural events.
Winter 2024 in Nigeria
During winter Nigeria is still hot, so there is lots you can do. Head over to the Lekki Conservation Centre, which is an untouched area of natural vegetation. Here you can see many plant and animal species. Winter is also a great time to visit a theme park as it is dry season. So, if you’re travelling with kids, head on over to Dreamworld Africa to enjoy an array of rides. Take a trip to Tarkwa Bay Beach too, which has an original lighthouse that guides boats into Lagos Harbour.
