Mt Gemi offers a panoramic view of

surrounding villages and towns including the far away Volta lake.


About the Sanctuary

For the past 200 years, the monkeys inhabiting the tropical forest surrounding the small village of Tafi-Atome have been protected because it was believed they were

messengers to the gods. In 1996, the village began broader efforts to protect their forest and monkeys, as well as to offer tours for visitors.

As a result of these efforts, the monkey population has increased to about 300 and the forest, with its many species of birds and butterflies, has been preserved. The playful

monkeys often come down very close to visitors.


Keta Lagoon, also called Anlo-Keta lagoon, is the largest of the over 90 lagoons 21 that cover the 550 km stretch of the coastline of Ghana. This lagoon is 126.13 km in length. It is located in the eastern coast of Ghana and separated from the Gulf of Guinea by a narrow strip of sandbar.

This open salty water is surrounded by flood plains and mangrove swamps. Together they form the Keta Lagoon Ramsar site which covers 1200 km.
