I am planning a school trip for mid-July next year to the south of Ghana, unfortunately this is the only time of year that my school allows us to go now. I ran this trip in Feb of this year and the great weather allowed us to eat outside everywhere we travelled. From research I'm aware that this is the end of the rainy season but it's July or nothing. Could anyone tell me how rainy it is and whether the rain would ruin any visits to the beaches? (we have several planned days on the beach) Would it mean having to eat indoors all the time etc? Do the days tend to be overcast or is there some sunshine too? Looking at the current forecast for this week thunderstorms are on the cards - at what point do these tend to lessen? Does mid to late July bring any improvements?
I'd be really grateful to hear from anyone who lives in southern Ghana or anyone who has experienced July weather on several occasions. We won't be heading any further north than Akosombo.
Thanks very much,
Claire
