On the port of Cape Coast, Ghana. Fishermen preparing for a day at sea. #culture #ghana #elmina
Definitely worth the day trip from Cape Coast. Taken November 2010.
View from Elmina Castle. My visit there was one of the best and saddest moments of the trip to Ghana. You can't really say how powerful it is going to be until you find yourself there. P.S. More on my visit there and on what I felt (in Romanian)-- https://bit.ly/33Zx0za
