Coco Beach Accra Ghana - Alison Harmon


For a free day in Ghana we decided to visit Coco beach.  We grabbed some free fruit for breakfast from the hotel lobby and hailed a cab to the beach.  We thought that the Ramada Inn would be a nice location to be dropped off at, that way we had access to food and bathrooms when necessary.  We rode in a cab with out a meter and got a barging price of 12 GNC for the ride. 

Once we got there we were so excited to be on the beach! I wouldn’t wait to lay out and read and the boys couldn’t wait to swim.  One reason we chose Coco beach as opposed to other near by beaches is because we heard the ocean was cleaner in this area. Once we had sat on the beach for hours, we were starting to get hungry for lunch.



We went into the hotel and ordered two heart shaped pizzas for lunch.  We also ordered waters to keep us hydrated since we were going back out in the sun.  This lunch was only 32 GNC.   After lunch we decided instead of going back to the beach we were going to crash the hotel pool. This turned out to be a great idea! It was so beautiful and we still got to enjoy being outside, with out having to deal with the sand.



For dinner that night we went back into the Ramada Inn restaurant.  Where I had a dinner of a roast beef type meet, green peas, carrots and potatoes.  I don’t really like green peas and carrots, but the meat and potatoes were good! The boys all had something similar to my dinner, this meal cost our group a total of 170 GNC



After that we caught a cab back to our hotel and again got a bargain price, but this time for 14 GNC.  We called it a night early so we could be prepared to enjoy the last few days on our whole journey.

Total cost for the day: 228 GNC
