License-free boat rental in Lagos
A first helm without a license in Lagos: engine capped at 6 hp, a marked-out area, the whole family aboard.
Lagos's waters at 5 knots
The Lagos bay and the golden pinnacles of Ponta da Piedade, the last great shelter before the wild west coast: that is the setting. Weather-wise: calm mornings below the cliffs, nortada and swell reclaiming their rights past Sagres point — with 6 hp you pick the calm morning sea, and the exact area is drawn by the operator at the briefing.
Booking at the right moment
The useful season runs from May to October, the caves best seen at first light. Six-hp fleets being the smallest in the harbour, aim for the morning slot.
