This place is situated in the heart of Badagry, where slaves taken from different parts or some parts of Nigeria are kept or transported across the shores to unknown destinations, there is a torturing room or court where slaves were being kept with little or no ventilation, humans were exchanged for a bottle of gin, umbrella or bowls. Entry fee into the museum is 500 per person, taking a boat across is like 500 to 1k per person to the point of no return. I appreciate the tour guide who took the time to narrate all that is needed to know.

I visited Badagry via water, which was a faster means of transportation. Payment for the boat ride was made, And life jackets were shared for all passengers before boat departure. It was a 1 hour-10 min ride from CMS (marina) to Badagry port, filled with turbulence that got me pretty terrified at first but I adjusted in no time and became relaxed for the remaining part of the journey. I was advised to avoid boat rides at dusks as the waves are stronger and navigation becomes more difficult.
Point of no return, where the slaves finally departed the land. Today, it's a really cool and decent arena with coconut trees and beautiful views of the water. The port is to be harnessed for potential economic advantages.
This place is a kind of place to visit, you can learn alot of things you need to know about slavery in badagry, start up your car now and come visit badagry.

They need to do better with the environment. The place has soon much history and potential for high volume tourism.
Well preserved, excellent guide. A little sad when you see all that slaves had to go through. Great history lesson
A historical place to visit with families and friends. Slave route, The port, The Attenuation well. It's fun.
It is Historical and talks deeply about the slave history of the African race especially Nigeria.
It is enlightening to hear the stories of the slaves and to actually see where they lived
Amazing place with lots of slave trade history and real relics and ancient buildings.
The routes 000 of Africans were been dragged out in chains
I live this place and can't ever get enough
