Tema (Accra), Ghana picture
From its humble origins as a fishing village to its current status as Ghana's largest port, Tema's industrial growth has somewhat obscured the picturesque scenery of the region. However, the neighboring beaches retain their unspoiled beauty, and, happily, these serve as a testament to the diverse birdlife found in the area. Gannets, Boobies, and Kingfishers all nest in and navigate the forests and waters along the coast. However, most visitors will undoubtedly want to travel the 20-mile distance to Accra, the country's capital. Here, you'll find markets flush with color and activity, as well as 17th-century churches and a surprisingly lush botanical garden.

Walvis Bay, Namibia

11 EXCURSIONS

Walvis Bay, Namibia picture
Situated on the edge of the Namib desert, north of the Tropic of Capricorn in the Kuiseb River delta, Walvis Bay is one of Africa's most exciting destinations. It has a history spanning centuries – it was first “discovered” by the explorer Bartholomeus Diaz in 1487; the Cape Dutch, however, `founded` it in 1793, and in 1840, Britain annexed Walvis Bay and a small area surrounding the territory to ensure the safe passage of British ships around the Cape. The many layers of colonial influence have left their mark, and a short stroll around the city will reveal remnants of the town's history in the facades of old trading posts, maritime structures, and charming cottages. The real showstoppers, however, are the colossal dunes that beckon adventurers to conquer their lofty heights. For those who climb the towering mountains of sand, your efforts will not be in vain: the desert panorama at the summit will leave you both literally and metaphorically breathless. But Walvis Bay's allure doesn't stop there. Its lagoon shimmers with a flamboyance of flamingos, the salt pans glisten like scattered diamonds, and playful dolphins dance in the Atlantic's embrace. Take a boat trip to view the wildlife in its natural habitat.
