Green Turtle Lodge is situated in a remote area in the Western Region of Ghana. We are about five hours drive from Accra and about one hours dirve from Takoradi. The last 10km of road is a dirt track through the bush. It is in poor condition so it is slow going but the bumpy ride will be worthwhile once you reach the beach - we promise!

How to get there:

By public transport - Travel from Takoradi to Agona Junction. Take a tro-tro (local mini-bus taxi) or a taxi heading to Akwidaa. Ask to be dropped at Green Turtle Lodge, about one kilometre before Akwidaa.

By private vehicle - Travel west from Takoradi to Agona Junction and turn left at the roundabout. At the next fork junction, take the right hand road to Dixcove. Turn right at the taxi station as you enter Dixcove. Follow this road straight, towards Akwidaa. Green Turtle Lodge is 10 kilometres along this road, on the left before you reach Akwidaa.

GPS - Our GPS co-ordinates are: N04° 45.515' W002° 01.272'

Telephone: 00 233 (0)244 893566 (Please note that this is a mobile phone number and signal is poor at the beach. SMS text messages are more likely to get through on this number than phone calls.)

We appreciate that at present it is difficult to contact us at late notice, but we do get busy and recommend booking in advance. We will, however, try our best to accommodate those who arive without advance reservation.
