So, we may not have exchanged ‘I love yous’. Or tattooed each other’s names to our foreheads. And there’s a high chance you don’t even know our first name (it is ‘Whutiz’). But will that stop us from claiming you as our one and only bestie?


In true bestie fashion, we are constantly on the look-out for you and the well-being of your slay. Which is why today, we have made it our mission to show you the very best places to take photographs in Lagos with the most powerful device to make sure all your pictures end up looking like this:


Before we use too much talk to spoil this matter, here are 5 places to visit in Lagos for their crazy Instagrammable potential:

Lekki Conservation Centre, Canopy Walkway

As people who love good things, more than half of Lagos has signed attendance register at the LCC Canopy Walkway. Who can blame them?

With scenic views and the promise of an adventure, it is, without a doubt, the perfect backdrop for that peace sign and tongue-out pose you’ve finally perfected.

Not this type however, plis dear.

The only issue is, you can’t use a manage-manage camera to capture the beauty of this place. Grainy pictures or images cutting out the vastness of the trail, just won’t do. Luckily, we know a little something that can solve this problem. Here’s a sneak peek.

We’ll talk a little more on this beauty later. We know you’re excited, but don’t skip to the end just yet.

Nike Art Gallery.

Just look at this beauty. We’re already imagining your selfie with these artworks behind you. Mark Zuckerberg is shook.

If you’re looking to find it, Nike Art Gallery is located at 2 Oba Yekini Elegushi road, Lekki Phase 1.

Epe Mangroves.

Searching for confirmation that Lagos isn’t all traffic and agberos looking to steal your phone? Look no further than the Epe Mangroves situated at the small town of Ibeju-Lekki.

This spot is only if you’re 100% committed to getting the ultimate selfie, as it requires a 30-minute boat ride from Ibeju-Lekki (a one-hour drive from Ajah) to get there. But are those likes and comments worth the stress? Absolutely!

Nok By Alara

Nok by Alara is a fine dining, Pan-African restaurant whose great food is eclipsed only by the awesome restaurant space serving it.

Whether inside the restaurant or hanging at the setting at the back, Nok is that right amount of Lagos-cool your Instagram feed has been begging for. Please tension us.

The Beach.


Who’s the baddest beach in Lagos? Some might say Ilashe, but my money’s on you. Moist, Pop Beach, Elegushi, Oniru, there are a ton to pick from. Don’t forget to tag your besties.

And now for the real tea.

We’ve given you the very best places to display your slay, it’s only right we tell you the best device to make sure your pictures end up looking great.

Forget us, the Tecno Phantom 9 is your absolute bestie when it comes to taking the bombest photos for Instagram. No more having to cut out the best parts of your pictures, the Phantom 9 has a wide camera angle to make sure you never have to compromise. Plus, it has a super cool fingerprint unlocking feature, so only you will see those pictures where you forgot to suck belle.

If your phone memory doesn’t let you take 1500 versions of the same selfie, dump it sis! With the Phantom 9’s 128 gb memory, feel free to go crazy taking as many selfies as you like. Don’t stop till it looks a little like this times 100.

So, we’ve done the Lord’s work. We’ve shown you where to take the best pictures and the phone to make sure you do so.

Now go forth, and slay!
