Best Time to Travel
For a smooth ride, travel between 10:00 AM and 3:30 PM. Avoid the morning rush hour from 6:30 AM to 9:00 AM and the evening rush hour from 4:30 PM to 8:00 PM when workers are closing from offices.
Safety Rating
Medium - Obalende is a highly crowded motor park area. You must be alert and watch your pockets and bags to prevent pickpocketing, especially early in the morning and late at night. Onikan is much calmer and safer, but stay aware of your surroundings at all times.
