Board a Danfo bus from Ikeja Under Bridge heading to CMS or Obalende.
From CMS or Obalende, board another bus going towards Ajah and drop at Marwa Bus Stop.
Take a Keke Marwa or a small bus from the junction to the Elegushi Beach gate.
Pay the entry fee at the gate and walk or take a short shuttle to the water side.
Hold small change (Naira notes) to pay the conductors easily.
The beach is very busy on Sundays, so leave Ikeja early to avoid heavy traffic on Third Mainland Bridge.
Ask the conductor clearly if the bus is stopping at Marwa before you enter.
