Ghana is a year-round destination, but the two best windows are:

• November–March: Dry season, best weather, ideal for beaches and outdoor activities
• December: Peak season for Detty December — Ghana's famous festival and party month

The rainy season runs April–October. It doesn't prevent travel, but some roads and outdoor sites are less accessible.

A classic first-timer Ghana itinerary includes:

1. Accra — Independence Square, Makola Market, Jamestown, Oxford Street nightlife
2. Cape Coast — Cape Coast Castle (UNESCO), Kakum Canopy Walk
3. Volta Region — Wli Waterfalls, Lake Volta
4. Kumasi — Kejetia Market, kente weaving villages, Manhyia Palace
