Peak Season: Tourists having a mind to spend their holidays on beaches while basking in sunny afternoons should visit during December and January. This is just the time of year when rainfall comes to a standstill, and the average daytime temperature is around 27 °C. But on a general note, November to March is considered to be the dry season in Lagos and by default the tourist peak season. Travelling in these months would be perfect for your beach parties and outdoor sightseeing. Lagos is located very much near the equator and experiences what climatologists call, a tropical savannah climate. This is characterised by a long wet season and a longer dry period.

Off-Peak Season: However, for those not wanting to feel a severe sun on their backs should consider travelling in the shoulder periods, March and April or September and October. Occasionalrainfall creates a magical spell in an otherwise dry climate and complements the mood of the traveller. Rainfall is quite moderate during these months, and low-season translates to fewer crowds and possibly cheaper flight deals.
