Port Harcourt - Post Report Question and Answers

What are some interesting/fun things to do in the area? Can you recommend any “hidden gems"?

Not much locally!! I believe the trips to the river are fun, with sandy inlets and crystal clear water. Families do organize get-togethers often, which mainly involve swimming pools, food, and drinking! On camp we have a club with restaurants and a large swimming pool. There are a number of sporting activities available on our camp, such as squash, tennis, cycling and running to name but a few. There is a regular Hash which can be attended by anyone. Internal travel is fairly easy so travel to Lagos/Abuja for weekends is a possibility. There is a cattle ranch about a two hour flight away on the border of Cameroon, and VirginNigeria flies from Lagos to Accra, Ghana now. Some expats choose to visit the beach-side hotels there for a few days and no negative reports heard of yet. - Apr 2006
