Sustainable Living in Lagos: The New Green Policies and How Boavista Golf & Spa Plays Its Part.

In recent years, Lagos has embraced sustainability not as a passing trend, but as a guiding principle for the city’s future. With the introduction of new green policies, the local government is committed to reducing environmental impact, safeguarding natural resources, and promoting a healthier lifestyle for all who live in and visit the city.

It is also a powerful reminder of how our daily choices, from the way we use energy and water to the way our communities are designed contribute to a greener future, not only for ourselves, but for generations to come.


Lagos’ New Green Policies.
The municipality has launched a series of initiatives designed to make the city more environmentally responsible:


Incentives for Renewable Energy: Supporting the adoption of solar panels and other clean energy solutions.


Water Conservation Measures: Promoting efficient use and recycling of water to protect scarce resources.


Green Urban Planning: Integrating more green spaces, sustainable landscaping, and eco-conscious building practices.


Waste Reduction Programmes: Investing in improved recycling systems and reducing the use of plastics across the city.


These measures not only benefit the environment, but also enhance the long-term quality of life for those who call Lagos home and for the children and grandchildren who will inherit this future.


How Boavista Golf & Spa Plays Its Part
At Boavista Golf & Spa, sustainability is not an afterthought, it is woven into the way the community has been designed and continues to evolve. Many of you are already familiar with some of these initiatives:


Solar Panels: Harnessing the Algarve’s abundant sunlight to reduce reliance on non-renewable energy.


Sustainable Landscaping: Green areas carefully designed to be not only beautiful but also efficient, featuring native plants that require less water.


Water Recycling Systems: Advanced solutions that recycle and reuse water, helping to conserve one of our most precious resources.


These practices ensure that life at Boavista Golf & Spa is aligned with Lagos’ wider green vision, while creating a harmonious and enjoyable space for us today and for generations to come.


Why This Matters
Sustainability is about more than policies and systems: it is about people, communities, and the legacy we leave behind. Living in a place that values environmental stewardship means helping to build a future in which our children and grandchildren can thrive in safety, in well-being, and in harmony with nature.


As Lagos continues to implement forward-looking green policies, it is encouraging to see how local communities, including Boavista Golf & Spa, are integrated into this positive movement. These collective efforts show, in practice, what it truly means to live sustainably.
