good waves. - I surfed the point anywhere between one and six foot for two weeks straight. It's a long wave with nice shape. Minor concerns is the poo and the hassle that some of the village people give you.

fete - was surfing the same spot by white sand in february this year when I was in Ghana. Nice surf, but dangerous rocks. Plus, had a funny feeling cause the water was extremely warm and the feeling i wasn't alone got stronger. :-)

Directions - There used to be better directions on here. Anyone want to try and update the description with better directions? Mainly where to turn after driving out of Accra. I don't remember it being terribly obvious! Please help - want to go back here one day!
