The countless arms of the Volta River are perfect for exploring, taking a trip to the mouth of the estuary is spectacular and finding a secluded corner for a private swim can be a wonderful experience

There are many different things to do in the area surrounding the hotel, not least of which is simply lying on a hammock under a palm tree looking out over the estuary

Maranatha beach is the nesting ground for three different kinds of marine turtles and night-time turtle walks can be organised through the Ghana Wildlife Division office in town
