Beach near Kumasi, Ghana

Kumasi Travel Guide

Ghana

Kumasi is a large inland city in central Ghana, with a population of 3,768,239. It is an important urban centre away from the coast, so beach trips are not a feature of staying in the city itself.

Travellers arriving by air use Kumasi Airport (KMS), which serves the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Kumasi, so coastal visits require travelling beyond the immediate area.
