Bobowasi Island

Bobowasi Island is a small island in the Atlantic Ocean's Axim Bay and listed the first place in the top 3 most beautiful islands in Ghana. It is located 1.8 kilometers north of Axim Castle, east of Egwang Rock, and south of Mensell Hedwig Rock, and is north of Watts Rock, east of Egwang Rock, and south of Mensell Hedwig Rock. The term 'Bebo Arezi' comes from the Ghanaian Nzema language, which literally means 'they have beaten Arezi.' Over time, the name 'Bebo Arezi' has evolved into 'Bobo Arezi,' which is today known as Bobowasi Island.

According to legend, the Bobowasi Island was once covered in a dense forest. Because of the presence of dwarfs, people were not permitted to visit the island. However, visitors nowadays can come and admire the beauty of the island as well as the lighthouse which is considered as part of the Western Region of Ghana, 238 km west of the capital, Accra.
