August 7. Weekend Getaway


Saturday morning found Duncan and I picking up Gabrielle and Andrew, a New Zealander volunteering in Accra, and heading out west along the coast to Bojo beach. Once there we crossed an estuary about 80m wide and were deposited on a long sandbar made of almost white sand. The water was surprisingly cold at first (much colder than I’ve experienced anywhere else in Ghana) and there was a bit of an undertow, but overall it was nice for swimming.

We had a nice lunch at a restaurant on the beach, played some cricket on the sand, went for another swim, and then headed off a little further along the coast to Kokrobite Beach, where we stayed overnight at a popular guesthouse called Big Milly’s.
