At Ajah Bus Stop, look for another 'Danfo' or a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) heading towards Awoyaya or Lakowe. Confirm they will go past Abraham Adesanya Estate.
From Awoyaya/Lakowe, take a 'Keke Napep' or a smaller 'Danfo' that specifically goes into Beachwood Estate or stops directly at its entrance. Confirm your destination with the driver.

Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is between 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM on weekdays to avoid the worst of Lagos's peak hour traffic. Weekends, especially Sunday mornings, typically offer clearer roads, though traffic can still build up around popular leisure spots.
Safety Rating
Medium. During daylight hours, the route is generally safe. However, evening travel, particularly on the less developed stretches of Lekki-Epe Expressway past Ajah (e.g., Awoyaya, Lakowe, Bogije), carries a higher risk of petty crime or 'one-chance' incidents. Always use well-lit, busy bus stops and avoid boarding vehicles that appear suspicious or are not full.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) buses are available for a significant portion of this route (from CMS/TBS to Ajah). There is no active rail service available for this specific intrastate journey.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
