Epe is an Ijebu-Yoruba town and Local Government Area located next to the Lekki Lagoon in Lagos State.

According to history, Uraka, a hunter from Ile-Ife, was the first settler of Epe. He left Ile-Ife with a group of hunters on a hunting expedition which led them to a place called ‘Poka’. While here, his favorite hunting ground was a forest which he called Oko-Epe. Oko-Epe has since been corrupted to Epe. Uraka was later instructed by the Ifa oracle to settle down in Epe which he did and gradually was joined by other settlers.

Places surrounding Epe include Ijebu-Ode, Ijebu-Igbo, Sagamu and Ikorodu.
