If only the time-weary walls of Elmina Castle could talk! But seeing they can't, check if tours are available to hear a few of its tales instead.

You'll have sightseeing choices galore when visiting Elmina. Elmina Castle is a great place to kick off here, but there are loads of other fine attractions to consider. University of Cape Coast, Fort St. Jago, and St George's Castle are not far from the fortified complex and will round out your day nicely.
