I went to Busua
Beach from Cape Coast in August 2017 for a day trip. It took so long
to go that I wouldnt recommend it for a day trip, but it is
definitely the best beach I visited in Ghana: it was similar to
Krokobite but much cleaner and almost no people. I would spend two
nights. It was super peaceful and relaxing. But because it was rainny
season (May-September) three hours later I arrived it started to rain
a bit. There are some lodges and hotels but it seems pretty empty in
general terms. There are a few surfers schools. The workers of hotels
and restaurant (maybe 5-6 people) dont bother you so much as they do
in Labadi or Krokobite. About logistics and how to go there from Cape
Coast: I first took a trotro at 7am (local vans that work as buses)
from the trotro station with destination to Takoradi for 10 cedis
(2€). Then in Takoradi, at the gas station Ezi Goal Station (in
front of the roundabout, by Agona-Takoradi rd) I took another trotro
to Agona for 5cedis (1€). Finally at Agona town, at the little
trotro/taxi station by the roundabout (make sure you tell the driver
of the Agona trotro you are going to Busua or he will take you
further in town instead of dropping you at this taxi station to go to
Busua) you have to take a shared taxi (3 cedis per person) or normal
taxi (10 cedis) to Busua. The taxi will drop you at Busua, 1min walk
from the beach and the resorts. The whole trip took me 4h.
