View from our hotel at Cape Coast

The big building across the water is a Slave castle from days gone by.  There are 30 plus Slave castles in Ghana where they would put the people when they were captured while waiting to put them on the boats.   We will visit one and have a tour one day when we have time.

The many boats you can see are just going into shore in the morning.  They go out at night and cast their nets and bring in their catch first thing.  There were a lot of them.  Also many small boats on the ocean  fishing for their livelihood.
