GB Boats in Accra?

Recommended Posts

Does Accra/Rockley beach have a place where you can get glass bottom boats? Can you go snorkeling with the sea turtles there or is paynes bay better for that? Is Paynes Bay not a good place to go? I want to swim with the turtles but don't want to take an extensive all day tour. I have heard some not so good things about Paynes bay so I want to make sure I don't end up in a shady place.

Thanks for the help!

Accra/Rockley Beach is on a completely different coast with different sea conditions.

You will never see glass-bottom boats at Accra

-they hang out along the West Coast which is usually millpond calm(but no guarantees).

 

I get the impression Paynes Bay has recently become a bit more civilized

ever since the infamous Blue Monkey Bar closed it doors.

 

Paynes Bay and/or Holetown are the places to catch glass-bottomed boats to do the Turtle thing.
