Visit Accra, Ghana (February 2010) [HQ]

We now live in Accra, so if you are looking for video of a specific place (or places), please let me know in the comments! We'll probably film it for our next 'Impressions of Accra'-video :)

Video with impressions of our trip to Accra, Ghana in February 2010. We left on the 4th of March, just a few days before Independence Day (March, 6). Please rate or comment if you like the video.

The music in this Accra, Ghana video is from the album 'Least expected' by Bracket (Nigerians, but we heard it a lot of times on the streets in Accra :) Buy the album on iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/nl/album/least-expected/id314030079 ).

hi reueltube. can i please ask u.. where is that beach starting in the video at 5:35 ? thank you!! going to ghana in a couple of months :))

[reueltube]

@Firefock1 It's in Teshie-Nungua (east of Accra). Grab a taxi or trotro (=minibus) to Coco Beach Junction in Teshie-Nungua, then take a taxi to Coco Beach Hotel and walk down the beach from there (where we were filming, is direction Accra). Sadly, this beach is not always clean :( If you want to go to a beach for swimming in Accra, the other one from the video -Bojo Beach Resort (west of Accra)- might be a better option. Also, behind Independence Square is a clean beach (sundays = busy!). Enjoy!

@keithcobbin I live in Seattle area and often go to Oregon Coast via Corvallas. I am also interested to move in to Accra in about a year or two. I wonder if you have searched to see how much is the cost of living there. if you know anything about housing cost, and medical expences etc. please email me. just use my sign in name and I am on gmail. Thanks!
