      Accra - a bustling blend of old and new

      Accra was the capital of the British Gold Coast, becoming Ghana's capital after independence. This vibrant city is a mix of old shanties, colourful markets, such as Makola, and impressive modern buildings. Visitors should take in the National Museum and the Danish built Osu Castle. As this is the Presidential Home and seat of government, visitors are not allowed to take photographs. Accra also has excellent shopping and a lively nightlife. Bojo and Labadi Beaches are nearby, while the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park is worth a visit.


      When is it good to travel to Accra?

      Accra has two rainy seasons, one from April to mid-June and  the second in October, but temperatures remain fairly constant throughout the year, ranging from 24°C to 28°C. To avoid monsoons, travel between November and April.
