Jamestown Light House

The locals and some tour guides the treat clients well. Went to shoot a music video another great landmark in the history of the world 🌎

Even though the lighthouse was closed when I went, it was still nice being at such a historically and culturally rich site. Hopefully, it will be open next time I visit Ghana.

It was ok.. could not enter, since was under renovation Person outside was trying to be a guide, avoided.

I had a very nice time!,I had the tremendous opportunity to meet the local cheif and visit there shrine TOMORROW SCHEDULE MEETING Time: 3pm Venue: Jamestown British Accra PEOPLE TO MEET Mr BRIAN NII ARMAAH AUSTIN( NII ODIASEMPA) Mr EMMANUEL Mark Hansen(NII DJASE) Mr LOFTY VERN BRIMAH Gabriel Amanda manseh Clyde Ashley Sherman Kofi from America 3 years 4 months on a Spiritual Journey Let GO...Let GOD There shrine doubles as a make shift Orphanage/school/DayCare/ Community Center according to the local cheif . The leadership there wanted a serious equity partner to help build a structure to support a school and School Day Care and Community Center...all great things for a serious development cheif. The guys I introduce were not seriously committed to a start up Orphanage. They had serious issues that it was not established well enough in the officially funded paper work trail but in reality I believe the children in the Jamestown Historical Fishing Community did benefit from my mysterious unknown Dubia impromptu Donation..10k ghcds was prayed over br a Ashanti Crown Prince Blessing the Investor money that was used to by items he alone picked out..They selected food and drinks..no school supplies or funds..there was talk to revisit and possible buy a cow..that might happen but not with me..The Donator was on another path than my Spiritual Journey..and I was led to move in another positive uplifting community direction ...

Don’t bother. The place is falling apart and I was told that it is too dangerous to enter. What a pity!

Jamestown Lighthouse was nice. In November of 2024 there were no tours. We visited on a weekday. The lighthouse and surrounding area is in need of a beautification project. It is sad to see this historical landmark in dire need of something.

If you go with a local guide there, please be careful and confirm the price before you go!! The local guide in tourism information centre told me the tour is GH¢50 but once I finished my walking tour, he told me it's GH¢150 (US$10) because each site is GH¢50. I appreciate him for telling me history, but I also hope he could use part of the money to support the community as he said, not just only scam me. Overall, the place is worth a visit and tour guide also helped me gaining a lot of history knowledge about British Accra(Jamestown). You'll learn how British came here and did slaves trading around Jamestown fort in 1700s. However, if you want to walk alone it's free, but you won't be able to enter the Jamestown Fort. The below photos showed my whole tour that tour guide arranged.

It would have been amazing to explore this historical place, but once we left our taxi, local "guides" jumped to us and they were very pushy and very rude. They didn't allow us to go downstairs too. Maybe one day this will be amazing place to visit, but not now. I will add pictures to show "reality", because some of the pictures looks nothing like this place, it's extremely dirty. It's a historical place, it should be kept better and respected way more.
