What better way to break your fast than to come together with your family, friends and community to have the most memorable time in Lagos, rejoicing and sharing in the happiness of Eid al-Fitr? To close this Ramadan season, we have curated a special list of activities for you and your loved ones to enjoy!

Weekend bike riding

For adventure-seeking enthusiasts, this is for you! Whether you’re an amateur or expert cyclist, this activity is suitable for a group of friends, family or work colleagues to bond. Cycling on the weekend is a fun activity to do in Lagos but, whatever you do make sure you plan properly and in advance- have a coach in the group, choose a safe location, and always be alert of your surroundings. Happy cycling!

Chess 

Chess is a fun and educative way to engage your children at the park while you and your partner munch on snacks. Not only is it an excellent opportunity for quality bonding time, it is also a mentally stimulating game that helps children develop critical thinking skills. The game of chess also helps improve their strategic planning abilities and enables them to concentrate for longer periods. 

Fun fact: it is an activity that can be done without any screen time!

Sip and Paint

Don’t worry about perfection – Sip and Paint is all about having fun and expressing yourself. This trendy activity combines artistic expression with a social atmosphere, making it ideal for couples on a romantic date night or families with older children looking for a unique bonding experience. And the best part? You can sip on refreshing non-alcoholic cocktails, while unleashing your inner artist! Remember to take photos of your finished masterpieces to cherish the memories.

Scavenger Hunt

Imagine the thrill of racing against another family, hunting for clues and discovering hidden treasures in the great outdoors. Sounds exciting, right? Gather your family and invite another adventurous group for an epic scavenger hunt showdown. Choose a date and time, divide into teams and assign each group a unique team name. Don’t forget to carry with you some water bottles and a sense of adventure. Celebrate the end of the hunt with a picnic lunch, fun stories and laughter, as you relive the highlights of the day.

Explore the city

There’s something magical about exploring a city’s art scenery and iconic tourist destinations with a group of friends or your partner. From wandering through art galleries to marveling at historical landmarks, embarking on this adventure together can be a fun way to create lasting memories. Try somewhere new—we have lots of places in Lagos to explore. That place that has been on your bucket list for the longest time?  Go there!
