Home to the first President of Nigeria, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Calabar is a city steeped in history and the perfect base for exploring the country's past. If history's your thing, make sure you visit the National Museum to learn about Calabar's part in the slave trade. If you're looking for something slightly more relaxing, head to the Ibeno Beach for some sun, or visit one of the city's amusement parks. Come in December and take part in the annual Christmas festival - there's great music, delicious food and a great atmosphere, what more could you want?
