Cape Three Points

Cape Three Points, Cape Three Points · Western

The southernmost tip of Ghana, a forested headland with a lighthouse and the Atlantic breaking on both sides.

The local tip

The last stretch is a rough track through forest, so go with a driver who knows it and start back before dark.

Check before leaving

Confirm the road condition and whether the lighthouse area is accessible that day.
