Heritage, Hospitality & Cultural Development
Ningo-Prampram is a serene coastal town near Accra, primarily known for its clean, sandy beaches and remarkable historical sites. The district is home to Ghana's first police station, the historic Fort Vernon (built in 1742), and the culturally significant African Ancestral Wall — landmarks that draw visitors from across the country and beyond.
Top attractions include relaxing at beachfront resorts such as Central Beach, C-Resort, The Palms, Atlantic Bay, and Ocean Green, each offering a unique coastal experience. The district also comes alive with the vibrant Homowo Festival, a cherished cultural celebration of the Ga-Dangme people that draws large crowds and showcases the district's rich heritage.
The Tourism, Arts and Culture Department is dedicated to promoting these attractions, preserving the district's cultural identity, and developing sustainable tourism that benefits all communities in Ningo-Prampram.
