An Illustration on the Journey of No Return at the Heritage Museum in Badagry.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: From the 16th Century till its abolition in 1886, the coastal town of Badagry, now a part of Lagos State, was the final point of departure for indigenes who were sold into slavery.

Decades ago, millions from the hinterland were bundled into ships and delivered to traders in European and American markets. Today, it has become a destination for tourists who want a slice of its well-preserved ties to the transatlantic slave trade.

Some of these structures were important steps on what is now known as “the journey of no return”

Slaves passed these 5 notable stops on their journey of no return: Mobee Family House & Slave Relics Museum, Gberefu Island, Spirit Attenuation Well, The Ocean Path and The Point of No Return.
