Achenim

Greater Accra, Ghana
👥Crowded🚫Pollution

Achenim is a point break near a fishing village just outside Accra, offering the capital's residents a quick surf option when SW swells arrive. The wave is a quality right that peels along a rocky point, providing good walls for performance surfing. The proximity to Accra means it can get busy on weekends.
