Victoria Island (VI), located between Lekki and Lagos Island, is the home of the wealthy. It is rumoured to be the home of the elite and is located in Eti-Osa Local Government Area of Lagos State.

The Oniru chieftaincy family originally owned a large portion of VI until the Lagos Executive Development Board paid 250,000 pounds as compensation for the acquired land and an additional 150,000 pounds as compensation for the shrines destroyed in 1948. The original inhabitants were eventually forced to relocate to Maroko Village.

Ikoyi to the north, Eko Atlantic City to the south, Lekki Phase 1 to the east, Takwa Bay and Apapa to the west surround Victoria Island.
