Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

05 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

Landmark Leisure Beach (LLB) is a private Lagos beach located at “Landmark Leisure Beach, Landmark Village, Watercorporation Road, VI, Lagos”.

The beach is hands-down one of the best in Lagos.

It is —

  1. usually neat;
  2. loaded with a lot of fun activities and facilities;
  3. features calm ocean waves;
  4. filled with very polite staffs — professional, helpful, and thoughtful;
  5. devoid of too many crowds;
  6. filled with great restaurants; and
  7. everything there are in nice conditions.

 

However,

One thing I must mention is that the place is quite expensive, compared to most other beaches in Lagos.

In short,

If you’ll like having fun at a beach, but can’t just tolerate the poor conditions of most beaches in Lagos, then Landmark is a place you should consider.

 

This article is not only meant to give a summary of what LLB is about.

It is also my intention to provide you with every other information you’ll find useful. And there we go.

 

Fun activities and facilities available

Beach paintball

There are a lot of fun activities and facilities available at Landmark, to ensure you, your family members, and your friends all have a fantastic time at the place.

And one of the activities available is beach paintball.

01 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

For those who don’t know what this is, paintball is simply a game simulating shooting games.

Basically,

You’re equipped with a gun, and your objective is to kill the enemies [in this case the other people playing the game as well are the enemies].

02 2 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

But rather than using real bullets, your toy guns will be loaded with paintball bullets.

These paintball bullets are harmless. When they hit someone all they do is create a splash of paint on the person’s body.

03 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

There are also some gears you’ll wear, to make sure of your safety as well as to ensure your clothes don’t get stained.

So if you’re a guy who loves shooting games like Call of Duty, I bet you’ll enjoy this activity.

50 bullets — N02,500

100 bullets — N04,000

500 bullets — N13,000

2,000 bullets — N42,000

 

AstroTurf pitch

Football is one of the games you can play during your visit to Landmark.

The beach provides an AstroTurf pitch for the people who’ll like to play football.

The pitch can take as many as 8 people per team.

And just like the beach paintball game, this game requires paying to partake in it.

If you’ll like to join an open play session as an individual, you’ll have to pay N1,000.

However,

If you’ll like to rent the whole pitch, N23,000 is what you’ll have to play.

 

Kids’ play area

Landmark is a place for people of all ages.

So if you have a kid, you can bring the kid along.

While you’re engaging in some other game, the kid can have fun and play with other kids in the kid’s play area.

And good enough,

Playing in the play area is free, so you won’t have to worry about money.

Beach soccer

While some people will prefer playing football in a proper field, there are those who will prefer beach soccer.

And if you’re the type who’ll prefer beach soccer, you should have no problem as this game is also available.

However,

If you’ll like to play the game, you’ll have to bring along your ball. But you won’t be charged at all for this game.

 

Water sports

If you are a fan of water sports, there are a good number of them you can enjoy at Landmark.

And these available water sports are — Paddleboard ride, Cruise boat ride, Jet boat ride, Jet ski ride, and Kayaking.

 

Paddleboard ride

The paddleboard ride is one of the types of water sport you can enjoy at Landmark.

To enjoy this sport for 30 minutes, you’ll need N3,000.

But I won’t recommend paying the N3,000 for 30 minutes, I’ll rather ask you to consider the second package, N4,000 for 1 hour.

 

Cruise boat ride

If you’ll like to engage in a water sport, but don’t have the skills required by some of them, you can consider the cruise boat ride.

This game is fun and doesn’t require having any special skill.

However,

To enjoy the sport, you must come as a group of at least 4 people.

06 2 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

The cost of the cruise boat ride is N5,000 per person. This N5,000 will give you access to a cruise boat for 1 hour.

 

Jet boat ride

Another water sport available at Landmark is the jet boat ride.

I don’t often see people taking part in this sport, but only if they understand how fun it can be, it’ll be one of the most popular water games at the beach.

To take part in this game, you have to come with at least one more person.

And the cost is N5,000 per person, per each 10-minutes adrenalin ride.

 

Jet ski ride

The jet ski ride,

As you will expect, is also a sport available at LLB.

If you’ll like to enjoy the game during your visit, what you’ll need is N20,000 for a 15-minute ride.

But rather than paying N20,000 for 15 minutes, I’ll recommend paying N30,000 for a 30-minutes ride.

 

Kayaking

Kayaking is also a very interesting water game.

And if you’re a fan, enjoying it during your visit to Landmark won’t be a problem.

With N4,000,

You can rent a kayak for 30 minutes.

However,

If you can afford to spend an extra N1,000 (making N5,000), I’ll suggest considering the N5,000 for the 1-hour package.

Swimming

Swimming is, of course, one of the activities available at Landmark.

But unlike most other activities, it doesn’t cost anything to enjoy it.

And since the ocean tides at the beach are usually very calm, nothing also stops children from playing in the water as well.

I should further add that, the beach has lifeguards who are always standing by; I hope this gives further assurance that swimming at the Landmark is a thing you can feel conformable about.

 

Basketball

While some people will prefer football, some will prefer other ball games like basketball.

And if you’re one of those who’ll prefer basketball, enjoying this game should be no problem.

07 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

However,

Like most other activities at the beach, enjoying this game requires paying some additional amount.

To join an open play session, as an individual, you’ll need N1,000.

However,

If you’ll prefer renting half of the court, you’ll be required to pay N7,500 for the first hour and N5,000 for each subsequent hour.

And as regard renting a full-court, expect to pay N15,000 for the first hour and N10,000 for each subsequent hour.

 

Quad bike

I’m yet to find someone who doesn’t enjoy riding on a quad bike.

And this is one of the activities I’ll really recommend anyone who hasn’t experienced it before.

08 2 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

Just like most activities,

Enjoying this fun activity requires paying some additional amount.

If you’ll like a 5-minutes ride, you’ll have to pay N5,000.

For a 10 minute ride, expect to pay N8,000.

And for a 20-minutes ride, be prepared to cough out N13,000.

I should mention that a lot of people engage in this activity, so if you don’t make a reservation at least a day before, all quad bikes may be unavailable for you.

 

Volleyball

Volleyball is also one of the games available at Landmark.

The beach features a standard volleyball facility.

And like most games, this activity is a paid activity.

09 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

To enjoy it,

You’ll be required to pay N16,000 per hour.

 

Mini golf

There exists a mini golf course at Landmark.

The course is quite standard, so I believe you’ll have a great time playing the game.

This activity, as you will expect, is a paid activity.

You can find the cost below —

1 player — N3,000;

2 players — N2,500 per player;

3 players — N2,500 per player; and

4 players — N2,250 per player.

 

NOTE: If any of the persons playing the golf game is not more than 12 years old, a N1,000 discount will be given, for each of the children below the age of 13.

 

Other features available

Changing rooms & toilets

The need to change your cloth is a thing you’ll most likely experience when you visit a beach. But unfortunately, many Lagos beaches fail at this.

However,

When it comes to Landmark, this won’t be a problem as the beach provides changing rooms.

Landmark also offers a public toilet.

And on all the occasions I’ve been to LLB, I’ve never met the toilets in bad conditions.

So be assured that if you ever need to use a toilet, this also won’t be a problem.

 

Loungers & Cabanas

Unless you plan to be absent from the beach when the sun is shining, you’re going to need to hide from the sun rays. And to do so, you can either get a lounger or a cabana.

10 1 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

11 - Landmark Beach, VI Lagos : [ Pictures & Honest Review]

Renting a lounger, for the whole day, will cost you N3,000, while a cabana, for the whole day, will cost you N25,000.

Foldable chairs and picnic benches are also available.

A foldable chair will cost you N2,000, and a picnic bench will also cost the same.

 

Access

Getting into Landmark Beach is not free.

And to get into the place, you’ll have to pay for either non-membership access or membership access (special customer access).

The following give details about the two access types.

 

Non-membership access packages

 

Package name Price Details
1 The non-member package N2,000 per day

The non-member package is the package meant for the people who aren’t members (special customers) of the beach.

This package admits only one adult into the beach. But if you have kids not more than 5 years of age, they’ll also be allowed in at no cost.

As for kids older than 5, but not more than 12, you’ll be required to pay an additional N1,000 per child. And as for kids above 12 years of age, they are considered adults, so to let them in, you’ll be required to get another non-member package for each of them.

 

Membership access packages

If you’ll be visiting Landmark at least 25 times in a year, you automatically become a member (special customer).

And if you’ll like to enjoy the special privileges meant for members, you should consider buying a membership access package.

 

Package name Price Details
1 The blue member package N50,000 annually If you’re just a single person who’ll be visiting Landmark a lot of times (at least 25 times per year), the blue member package is the package meant for someone like you.

 

This package, of course, admits only 1 person. But if you’ll be bringing along a kid not more than 5 years on almost all occasions, you won’t have to pay extra.

 

However, let’s assume you have other people, maybe grown kids and sisters (6 years and above), who you’ll like to include in your membership package, you’ll have to pay additional N25,000 per person.

 

 

Your membership privileges

 

1.

If on some days, some other people [who are not part of your package — guests] come with you, rather than them having to pay N2,000 per person, for non-membership packages, they’ll instead be required to pay just N1,000 per person, for non-membership packages.

 

2.

Because you’re a blue member, you’ll be given 5 per cent discounts on payments you make in relation to the beach’s fun activities and facilities.

2 The gold member package N200,000 annually The gold member package is the package meant for a man or woman who has a family and will like to bring along their family whenever coming to the beach.

 

This package gives access to you, another adult, all your kids nor more than 5 years old, and 4 of your kids not older than 12 years old.

 

If you have more than 4 kids between the ages of 6 and 12, you’ll have to pay additional N20,000 for each other kid.

 

This package, unlike the first package, doesn’t consider additional adults. So if there are more than two adults (people of 13 years and above), the other adults will have to consider their own separate package(s).

 

 

Your membership privileges

 

1.

This package also gives you the privilege to bring guests. And instead of each guest paying N2,000 for a non-membership package, they’ll instead have to pay just N1,000 for a non-membership package.

 

2.

The gold member package also gives you discounts on certain expenses at the beach.

 

With this package, you’ll get 10 per cent discounts on payments you make in relation to the fun activities and facilities at the beach.

 

Also, this package gives you between 10 and 40 per cent discounts on payments in relation to things like lounges, chairs, etc.

3 The jet-ski member package N400,000 annually There are people who personally own jet skis. If you’re that kind of person, this package is for you.

 

This package is similar to the blue member package. The only difference is that unlike the blue member package this package additionally provides you with a place to keep your jet ski.

4 The platinum member package N500,000 annually The gold member package will make sense for a lot of families. But when it comes to families with many children (for instance, polygamous families, extended families, etc), this package may not make much sense. In other words, if you have a lot more than 4 kids between the ages of 5 and 12 years, you should consider this package as it gives access to all your kids (regardless of how many they are).

 

This package also doesn’t consider additional adults. So if there are more than two adults (people of 13 years and above), the other adults will have to consider their own separate package(s).

 

 

Your membership privileges

 

1.

This package also gives you the privilege to bring guests. And instead of each guest paying N2,000 for a non-membership package, they’ll instead have to pay just N1,000 for a non-membership package.

 

2.

On payments made in relation to fun activities and facilities, you’ll get discounts of 20 per cent.

 

Also, you’ll get as high as 60 per cent discounts, on payments made in relation to things like lounges, chairs, etc.

5 The gold corporate member package N1 million annually Individuals aren’t the only ones that sponsor their visits to beaches, companies also sponsor them. And if you have a company which will like to sponsor the families of its workers, this package is for you.

 

Buying the gold corporate member package is similar to buying 15 gold member packages for 15 families in your company. However, what will have cost these 15 families a combined amount of N3 million now costs a much affordable N1 million.

 

 

Additional membership privileges

 

1.

For 4 weeks, none of the 15 families will have to pay, when making use of the AstroTurf pitch.

6 The diamond corporate member package N5 million annually While buying the gold corporate member package is similar to buying 15 gold member packages for 15 families at your company, the diamond corporate member package is similar to buying 30 platinum member packages for 30 families at your company. But what will have cost these 30 families a combined amount of N15 million, will now cost them a much cheaper N5 million.

 

 

Additional membership privileges

 

1.

For 12 weeks, none of the 30 families will have to pay, when making use of the AstroTurf pitch.

 

NOTE

When you want to buy a membership package, I won’t recommend doing it when you get to the beach.

Waiting to buy your access package when you get there, may require you to wait in a queue for a long period.

So to avoid having to wait for long, consider buying your package online (on the official website).

 

Frequently-asked questions

Are parking spaces available?

Yes, parking spaces are available at Landmark  Beach.

LLB has a lot of good parking spaces, so this is nothing to worry about.

However,

I’ve never come in a car to this place, so I can’t tell if you’ll have to pay for the parking space you make use of.

 

Is horse riding available?

While some people claim horse riding is available at Landmark, this is not true.

Not only have I been able to confirm this with staff at the beach, but I’ve also never seen a single horse at the place.

And if you’re a big fan of horse riding, I’ll ask you not to be disappointed because —

(i) the absence of horses help ensure you won’t have to deal with their poops; and

(ii) there are so many other activities that are as fun as horse riding, if not even more interesting.

 

Are pets allowed?

No,

Pets are not allowed at Landmark Beach.

So when coming,

Don’t even think of bringing along a pet.

It doesn’t matter if your pet is as harmless as a cat, you won’t be allowed in.

 

Things to note

Background music may not be as loud as you may like

There are some things you should be aware of before coming, so that when you later learn about them, you won’t end up surprised or disappointed.

And one of these things is that the background music at Landmark Leisure Beach may not be as loud as you may like.

I don’t know about you, but for me, I like it when I can loudly hear music playing in the background.

If you’ve been to some beaches like Elegushi at night, you should understand what I’m saying.

So if you’re the kind who likes loud background music, understand that this isn’t how it is at Landmark.

 

Ocean waves are calm, which is a nice thing

I know of many parents who refuse to bring their kids to beaches because of how turbulent ocean waves can be.

And if you’re one of such parents, note that the ocean waves at Landmark are very calm, so there’s very little to worry about, as regards this.

 

Hard drugs usage is strongly frowned upon

The use of hard drugs are things I’ve seen at many public beaches.

But when it comes to Landmark, not only will you never see such, also, if anyone is caught with such, they’ll be handed over to the authorities.

In short,

For those who worry about being in a place where such things are being done, you have nothing to worry about.

And for those who use hard drugs, Landmark is the last place you should think of doing such.

As regards smoking cigarettes, I don’t know of any rule against it. But at the same time, I won’t recommend trying it at LLB.

One of the things people appreciate about Landmark is that it is devoid of such things, so for the sake of these people, kindly avoid smoking at this beach.

If you can’t resist the urge, consider going out to do it, then you can come back in, when you’re done.

 

No swimming when it’s getting dark

Landmark isn’t one of those beaches which are just concerned about getting money from you, this beach is also genuinely interested in your safety.

And to ensure there are no terrible incidents, no one will be allowed to swim in the beach, when it’s getting dark.

It doesn’t matter how good you are at swimming, you won’t be allowed in the beach when it’s getting dark.

 

Food from outside are not allowed

Landmark is not one of those places where you’ll be allowed to bring in food from outside.

However,

If you bought a non-membership group package, you’ll be allowed to bring foods and drinks inside, if you’re also willing to pay some amount; the following are the details about how much you’ll have to pay for bringing in foods from outside.

 

Item Price
1 Cooler of non-alcoholic beverages N10,000 / cooler
2 Pack of standard alcohols and wines N5,000 / pack
3 Bottle of expensive alcohols and wines N5,000 / bottle
4 Cooler of food N10,000 / cooler

 

Grills are available

If for any reason you need a grill [let’s say you’re hosting a birthday hangout and will like to make barbecues], finding a grill will be no problem, as Landmark has grills you can rent for the day.

The cost of renting a grill is N5,500 for a medium grill, and N8,000 for a large grill.

 

Things I believe the place is ideal for

I believe Landmark is a great place to come if you’re interested in having fun.

It doesn’t matter whether you coming alone or coming with other people, you’ll find the place worthwhile.

However,

If what you want is a peaceful place to enjoy some peace and tranquillity, coming to Landmark may be a bad idea. For this kind of situation, I will recommend a place like Jubilee Chalets.

 

Opening days and hours

Under normal circumstances,

Landmark Leisure Beach is open on all the 365 (or 366) days of every year.

So even if you’re the busy type, you should be able to have some time to visit this beach in a year.

 

As for the opening hours, the beach is typically open from 8 am till 10 pm.

I know some of you will have preferred it if the beach can be open 24 hours a day, and I also wish the same.

 

The best time to visit

LLB is a place I’ll recommend when you want to have some fun.

But,

If you’ll love to experience some peace as well, consider coming in the morning of a weekday.

However,

If you’re more concerned about having as much fun as you can, consider coming in the afternoon or the evening of a Sunday or a Saturday.

Festive days and special days are also great times to come to this place.
