I was there to explore the wonders of Nature (water) Eleyele lake is in Ibadan city which serves lots of multifunctional purpose ie 1.Boat ride(tour) 2.Transportation 3.Fishing 4.Source of water for Ibadan city water project Location: once you get to Ibadan,board a bus/cab going to Eleyele then ask of Eleyele lake Fee: It depends on the boat riders ,you will have to negotiate with them but it’s cheap Other Attraction:Fish and palm wine are so cheap and if you love Fulani milk (you get to buy fura and Nono at an affordable price) Recommendation : The government/the locals needs to develop healthy hygiene as the place looks unkept and dirty. Common ! This place is a source of livelihood and income to people they should Atleast develop the place . A resort,swimming pool with a view of the lake or an aqua leisure will spice the place up. Above all I enjoyed the boat ride and had a lovely time with the mind blowing view of Nature. Kindly see pictures below

This is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Ibadan, I really enjoyed myself when I visited, from the boat cruise to the ambience, it was so soothing and relaxing. For visual content, you can check out my YouTube channel for the video (Theresa Adido). And don't forget to subscribe after watching 😍

A nice place to have a boat ride and cruise... this is a place in Ibadan that you can still enjoy a nice time Lake Eleyele is located at the northwestern part of the city

One of the governmental reserves that needs proper investment for the benefit of the community and revenue generation for the government of Oyo State.

Secure place to visit

Nice place to go for a first date in Ibadan or to chill out for a weekend when you're bored. Although their customer service is 6/10 and I hope they do better abd be more receptive. You have watch out proper as the place is not easy to locate, be sure not to get lost. It's a good place to be. 👍🏽

Visited Eleyele Lake in Ibadan and was truly captivated by its serene beauty and breathtaking views. The fact that there’s no entrance fee makes it even more inviting. The range of activities available adds to the charm, and the affordable charges for equipment access are reasonable. A perfect spot for relaxation and enjoyment. Highly recommended!

It's a cool place and good for recreation

Good

😍

I passed through the place.

Google map is probably gonna provide you the wrong directions, easiest way to get here is through Eleyele bus stop…then ask around cos it’s just around the bus stop corner

Amazing experience on the water with my guys ❤️🥰

This is a tourist site but not good for kids.

So unkept and disorganized. The proposed amusement project needs to be revisited now.

Construction ongoing

Post office

It can be modernized for tourism

Lake eleyele is a very lovely place to go on tour also it has jetski facility and some place to groove at

Cool

Cool breeze

One and only lake in IB city

Awesome space

At Lake Eleyele, local fishermen are available fishing and people visit the place to patronise the fishermen. You can sail from Eleyele to Apete as a short cut to the town and Ibadan Poly. There are couple of worshipping centres as well. Some Churches use the lake as baptism centre. At the suburb you can find block making Industry and car wash arena and petrol filling stations. You may visit the place for excursion.

For fishing and aquatic live. Better fishing community experience

Very cool and nice. If there could be a tourist center, it will b awesome

Nice view and great experience

I learnt there is canoe services from Eleyele to Awotan end of Ibadan

It's a beautiful site to behold, serene environment and good for meditation and reflection 👍

Nice view and amazing place to visit

Cool view

The lake is cool, ND d boats around they are really old but they are not too bad. If planning to visit, please request for a lifejacket

Just A Lake ..A Bit Big

The bridge connects arteria to the local road. A good extension for Ibadan residence

Wow what a wonderful experience

It's a very nice place for tourists visiting and you can also enjoy local wine restaurants there

Always a wonderful view every moment I set my eye's on it.

Nothing interesting. The government should build a resort and develop the place. It has great potentials.

A very large water body. Most time called Eleyele river it also has a Dam

Nice

A beautiful lake but unkempt. There are weeds floating over the lake reducing the scope of the lake. The forest around the lake has been deforested thereby allowing erosion sweep in sand degrade the lake. But it's good for fishing though!

No infrastructure in place And very bad road leading to the place. Hope the community can think about restoring normally to that environment without waiting for gov. It will serve a good income revenue.. but alas. Those that have been eating the current little money being made their will not want development self...

Very nice palmwine n fish

A cool waterside

Nice lake

Amazing!

Boat trip on it bangs

Lovely experience

Quit an awesome lake and view

Serene

Good site to behold... They have an active boat ride across the lake too

Serene

Good view

It was beautiful watching it. However the surroundings are not that clean and this can affect the water source. It's serves a lot of things and there's need to ensure it's clean.

Not bad for excursion

Because it has an amazing environment

Supply water to Ibadan metropolis

Nice water ways

Cool

Bad

A serene environment that house a reservoir for water supply to parts of Ìbàdàn city

Nice

Loved it💜

Lovely place, nature at its finest.

Beautiful scenery, calm water. Lovely boat ride

Its need

A place for Nature sighting

It's really a good place to go if you don't mind a short canoe cruise

There are machine boats that you can ride to cross the lake Eleyele from Eleyele to Awotan which is in Apete

Riverine

For resort

Major source of pipe born water for Ibadan metropolis

I had a great time with nature

Cool and serene

The place is very cool and fun. The sailor is friendly and also the people around. The lake is very big and scary kindof (probably because of phobia). I think Government need to look into the place to make it a standard tourist centre, so as to serve as source of income as well.
