Fort, built in 1590, in the heart of the village near the ocean at Shama, a site steeped in history, in good condition, worth a visit.

This small fort is located in the heart of the village near the ocean. It is in good condition and worth a visit. Built by the Portuguese in 1590 on the site of a former Dutch pavilion, it was abandoned ten years later. It was in ruins when the Dutch took it over in 1638. After restoration, it was conquered by the English in 1664. A few months later, the Dutch captured it again and held it for two centuries. Like most Dutch forts in Ghana, it was ceded to the British in 1872, who restored it in the 1950s.
