Badagry (ou Badagri) est une ville côtière du sud du Nigeria, qui fait partie de l'État de Lagos.

Fondé à la fin du XVe siècle, c'est un port protégé devenu un point de passage pour la traite des esclaves vers l'Amérique.

Badagry a la première école primaire du Nigéria[1]; la ville vit de la pèche et de l'agriculture, et il y subsiste un petit musée de l'esclavage[1].
