When is the best time to fly to Ghana?

Peak season:

Cheap flights to Ghana can be difficult to find, especially during the peak season.

July to April is practically the peak season, with the exception of October. March offers the warmest weather but with it you’ll find crowds of tourists surrounding you. Make sure you secure your flights to Ghana well in advance no matter when you plan to visit.

Off season:

April to July are the wettest months of the year. You’ll find the cheapest flights to Ghana then but don’t expect your flight tickets to be reduced too much. Tourism is strong practically all year round and that includes the rainy seasons. August is theoretically the coolest month so you might get lucky and find slightly discounted flight tickets. Other than that, Ghana doesn’t suffer from much of an off season so you will find it difficult to find cheap flights to Ghana in any specific month.
