Akatekyi Crocodile Pond is located about 30km west of Takoradi, the Western regional capital. The crocodiles are usually enticed by a sacrifice of fowl by the fetish priest.
The crocodiles are sacred and are part of the cultural embodiment of the people in the area. Visitors may bring a bottle of schnapps’ for libation.
The public are admitted to the pond from Sunday to Saturday with the exception of Wednesdays which are sacred days.
