Landmark Beach Resort: Coastal Highway Demolishes Five Beach Businesses

The bustling coastal region of Lagos, Nigeria, has recently undergone a significant transformation as the government moves forward with the construction of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway. This ambitious infrastructure project has come at a cost, as five thriving beach businesses have been demolished to make way for the new highway.


Landmark Beach: Sacrificed for Progress


Online 


On Monday, a portion of the popular "Landmark Beach," nestled on Victoria Island, Lagos, was demolished to pave the way for the coastal highway project. The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, has consistently justified this decision, emphasizing the importance of removing the landmark center due to its location on the Federal Government's Right-of-Way. 


Mami Chula Beach: A Casualty of Change

Another victim of the coastal highway construction is the recently opened "Mami Chula Beach," situated within the Oniru Beach area. This high-end beach destination, which had its grand opening earlier in February 2024, offered visitors a gourmet restaurant, a chic rooftop lounge, and a beachside bar, providing a luxurious beach experience. 


Breeze Beach Club: A Leisure Destination Lost

Breeze Beach Club, located in Victoria Island, Lagos, was a popular leisure destination that catered to a variety of preferences. Its range of amenities and family-friendly atmosphere made it a beloved choice for visitors seeking a relaxing getaway. 


Moist Beach Club: A Secluded Retreat Demolished

Secluded on Victoria Island, the "Moist Beach Club" was a popular spot for islanders and visitors alike. This private retreat offered a variety of amenities, such as a restaurant, bar/lounge, pool, open-air terrace, and nightclub. From sunbathing and pool dives to horseback riding and beach yoga, guests had a wide range of activities to choose from. 


G12 Oniru Beach: A Serene Coastal Destination Lost


As a well-known coastal destination in the Oniru area of Lagos, G12 Oniru Beach offered visitors a serene escape with its picturesque views and an array of recreational activities. Its accessibility and diverse offerings made it a popular choice for those looking to unwind by the sea. 


Xchange Lagos Beach Club: The Ultimate Beach Destination Demolished


Online 


Situated at Oniru Private Beach, "Xchange Lagos" offered a diverse array of amenities, including water sports, seaside lounges, a restaurant, beachfront apartments, cabanas, and a vibrant bar. With a nightclub, event centre, adult and children's pools, and a jetty, it catered to all preferences and attracted celebrities and visitors seeking relaxation and excitement. 


The demolition of these five beach businesses is a significant loss for the coastal community of Lagos, as they provided a range of leisure and entertainment options for both locals and tourists. However, the government's commitment to the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway project suggests that further changes and transformations are on the horizon for this dynamic region.
