Introducing Calabar

Tucked into Nigeria’s southeastern corner, the capital of Cross River state is one of the most likeable cities in Nigeria for visitors. Its port has historically made the town a prosperous place – Calabar was once one of Nigeria’s biggest slave ports and later a major exporter of palm oil. A popular stopover for travellers heading to Cameroon, Calabar has a great museum and two excellent primate conservation centres.
