Perfect place to stay if you come to visit Porto Novo (40 min drive from the city Center). Directly on the beach (unfortunately lots of trashes ...), chill and quiet place. Some people from the church close by came to say hi, really friendly. The way to come is really sandy and narrow so a 4x4 is necessary !
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
4x4 would be better to reach the place. It’s sandy.
Right on the ocean with a lot of spray/wind and loud waves.
We had a pick up truck coming and going at least five times during the night without lights on.
Report Check-InGreat spot for one night! Saw a few people walking home at night, and 2 people in the morning heading to work. Otherwise is far from people and noise, and right on the ocean. Great spot, ocean had. Decently strong current so be careful if you take a swim :)
Report Check-InBeautiful spot right by the ocean. We stayed here for one night before crossing into Nigeria. A local told us that there is an even more beautiful spot a little further east.
Report Check-InVery nice place to stay right on the beach, we were there before crossing to Nigeria. 15min from the border !
