The coast towns of Ghana played an important role in the days of the slave trade and there are many forts that remind you of this period. The forts and the beaches are the prime attraction of this area. Elmina, Shama andDixcove - where you can sleep on the beach or in a fort - are among the hot spot on the coast.
In the centre of the country Kumasi has a huge market and great opportunities for buying art and handicrafts. The area around is perfect for daytripping.
The main sight in the north is probably Mole Game Reserve which is off the beaten track but worth your while.
