Labadi

Labadi is a coastal suburb of Accra, the capital of Ghana, located in the Greater Accra Region. It lies along the Gulf of Guinea coast between Osu to the west and Teshie to the east and forms part of the urban expanse around central Accra. A defining feature of Labadi is Labadi Beach, one of the city’s best-known beaches, which attracts local residents and visitors for swimming, horseback riding, and leisure activities, particularly on weekends and public holidays.

The area is primarily urban and mixed-use, with residential blocks, hotels and guesthouses, shops, and eateries. Tourism and hospitality infrastructure around the beach support a range of services, including food stalls and live music elsewhere along the coast. The neighborhood’s development reflects Accra’s broader urban growth, with ongoing construction and commercial activity that serve both residents and tourists.

Labadi is served by the city’s road network and public transport connections, providing access to central Accra and other coastal areas. While busy, the district remains a focal point for recreation, nightlife, and coastal scenery within the city.
