Ghana Visa Requirements to Enjoy Local Culture in Accra
July 10th, 2011
Ecotourism may be the most common form of tourism is Ghana, but that doesn't mean you should overlook the capital city, Accra. The city is busy, and like so many cities in the developing world, it will initially seem dirty to Western eyes.

Here's how he describes the eco-lodge he stayed at and the surrounding area:
"For Peace Corps workers in West Africa, Green Turtle is Mecca. An untouched beach (one of the most swimmable in the region) lies between two fishing villages and backs up to a rainforest preserve. A ring of beach chalets surround a comfortable open-air bamboo pavilion, where an old fishing boat serves as the bar. The entire place has been built with locally sourced, sustainably harvested materials, solar panels provide electricity, and all of the toilets are composting."
