Lake Volta
Laboma Beach
My advice is to try the local jollof rice at the nearby eateries; it's delicious and won't break the bank. Just be careful of the spice level if you’re not used to it!
Aburi Botanical Gardens
Bojo Beach
If you're planning to jet ski, get your tickets in advance. It was sold out when I got there. My advice is to visit around 10 AM to secure your spot.
Don't forget to bring some snacks or a picnic! The food options can get super pricey, and we ended up eating way more than we wanted to
I suggest checking out the beach bar's happy hour; you can get drinks for less than half price from 3 PM to 5 PM. It made our time much more enjoyable!
Labadi Beach
Visiting around 5 PM was bettr than the afternoon! The sunset is stunning then, and it’s less crowded. Bring a camera to capture those Instagrammable moments!
If you're planning to eat at beachside shacks, try and bargain a bit! I found that prices weren't fixed, and I saved some cash that way. Plus, the jollof rice is seriously delish!
Check out the local market nearby before you hit the beach! I stumbled upon some amazing handcrafted jewelry and souvenirs that were way cheaper than at tourist spots.
Kakum National Park
Legon Botanical Garden
Akimota Forest
I think it's better to visit during the mornings like around 8 AM. The heat isn’t too bad then plus you get to see more wildlife roaming around. I wish I had known this earlier!
