Jet skiing is almost like surfing but with a machine beneath you. Aside from being bucket loads of fun, it’s also a great form of enjoying the view.

4. Go surfing

If you’re lucky enough to live near the ocean, this can be an excellent and adrenaline packed alternative! If you’ve never experienced it before, then Tarkwa Bay is probably the best place to start.

With relatively flat and shallow waters you’ll have endless opportunity to hone your skills.

5. Take to the trees

Trees produce most of the world’s oxygen, the Lekki Conservation Centre is a precious place, and by supporting sustainable tourism in the area, you can do your bit to ensure its survival for future generations.

And aside from all that, go on a canopy walk to enjoy a bird eyes view of the forest and see the wild life.
