Cape Coast Castle
Set of towards the Central Region on this exciting historical and adventure. Our first stop takes us to the Cape Coast Castle, as we take a trip back into time and into the days of Colonial Slavery. The Cape Coast Castle is one of about forty slave castles built on the Gold Coast of West Africa (now Ghana) by European traders. It was originally built by the Swedes for trade in timber and gold, but later used in the trans-Atlantic slave trade. They were used to hold slaves before they were loaded onto ships and sold in the Americas, especially the Caribbean. This gate of no return was the last stop before crossing the Atlantic Ocean. As you tour the castle, you will come face to face with the horrors of slavery within the dungeons of the Castle. We would also be exposed to the significant role this Castle played during colonial rule and the impact of education in the Gold Coast (now Ghana).
After a tour of the Castle, we spend time fishing with the fisher-folks at Castle. This is a pulsating experience. We would get into their boats and try our hands at fishing with them.
