Ghana is set to construct the largest artificial waterfall and water park in Africa, with phase one of the project scheduled for completion by Easter Monday, 2027.
The ambitious development forms part of the Gomoa Special Economic Zone (GSEZ) tourism project and is expected to play a major role in the country’s 24-hour economy agenda and broader drive to expand tourism infrastructure.
The project was disclosed by Member of Parliament for Gomoa, Kwame A Plus, following a meeting with President John Dramani Mahama, where progress on major tourism and economic initiatives was reviewed.
When completed, the attraction will feature a massive artificial waterfall designed as a landmark structure visible along the Accra–Cape Coast Highway during the day.
At night, the facility will come alive with illuminated water displays and synchronized lighting effects, positioning it as one of the standout tourist attractions on the continent.
Discussions on the project also included engagements with Chinese technical experts who have experience in large-scale artificial waterfall developments.
Site inspections and technical assessments are expected in the coming days to advance the design phase.
The entire facility is being designed to run on solar energy, with emphasis on sustainability, reduced operational costs, and accessibility for both local and international visitors.
The Gomoa Eco Park, another key component of the Special Economic Zone, is also expected to be fully operational within the current presidential term and serve as a major tourism and investment hub.
The project adds to growing efforts to position Ghana as a leading tourism destination in Africa, with a focus on large-scale attractions, innovation, and uniquely Ghanaian cultural identity.
