Shornaa Island Amusement Park — Attraction in Accra

My honest opinion is not worth it!

I didn't read reviews before going. That was my biggest mistake.

Positive: Park is nice and clean,

The rest:

I don't know why this is categorised as an amusement park cos this is not NOT an amusement park. An amusement would usually include roller coasters, Ferris wheels, carousels, water slides and other mechanical rides designed to provide intense emotions. The hallmark of amusement parks is their emphasis on speed, altitude, and twists and turns.

None of them were available, just a car ride, and the rest were bouncy castle, trampoline, and water slides.

Call it children park! or whatever, it's deceiving.

Sexondly, The entrance fee was affordable 65 cedis, but the fact you have to pay the same price per person for all other games even after paying for the gate fee, it's just ripped off. 65 cedis equivalent to 3£ per head/game doesn't seat well with me.

How much are you paying your workers? How much do people earn in Ghana? How on earth do u charge 3£ equipment to UK prices for just a game. Who is in charge of that place for Christ's sake? Ghana is a not developed country. How do u feel coming to Ghana opening such a beautiful place but only make it affordable for the rich and even,

I only paid for my children to ride the car and this cost me 195 cedis for 3 children and this was just for 4 mins ride. On top of that, I had to pay 65 cedis each for entrance. In total, I paid 465 cedis, including my fee, for my children to ride a car for just 4 mins cos that was the only thing they could do.

Moreover, the pricing was ridiculous so, didn't want to spend anything more.

The worst part of it all are the mosquitoes 🦟. Jesus! I have never seen so much 🦟 in my entire life. I know someone is replying saying there are mosquitoes in Ghana, yes, in all tropical countries mosquitoes are inevitable but pls, this is a serious health concern and I think something must be done or close the park after 18pm. My daughter had about 20 bits within 10 mins. You could literally see them right in front of you and there were about a 1000 if am not exaggerating.

If u ever take your children there, make sure to leave before 18pm cos that's when they all migrate and it's a horrible experience.

To be fair, they are other place you could spend reasonably, especially when you have more children like I did. We were 6 the place is crazy I could have spent 2000 for just bouncy castle, not even...

An Honest Review of the Park: Reflecting on My Experience and Common Visitor Feedback

Credit to everyone involved in this project! For years, Ghana has lacked public spaces where families and groups can unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Sadly, I grew up seeing many public spaces—what you would typically consider children's parks—transformed into commercial hubs; so this investment is a step in the right direction!

I genuinely believe the pricing is very fair, especially considering this is an international venture that is committed to adhering to all local standards and tax regulations. Any concerns or frustration about pricing should really be directed towards government policies rather than the business itself. What more can they do? Make it free so they go out of business? Obviously no. No business would make such a significant investment without aiming for profitability, especially when targeting a specific market, whether local or otherwise.

During my visit to the park, I noticed a 'Coming Soon' banner, indicating that additional attractions are planned. I spoke with the marketing team to confirm this, and while they didn’t disclose specific details, they did mention that these attractions would be rolled out in phases. If there's a chance for a open forum we could all suggest for the ferries wheel since we're all anticipating that.

It is undeniably true that the mosquitoes pose serious health concerns. But let’s be reasonable mosquitoes cannot be 100% eliminated in Ghana. I do recommend frequent spraying and management control strategies be in place to ensure a safe haven...

: I recently visited the park, and while I did enjoy some aspects of the experience, there were several issues that left me disappointed.To start, I spent over 30 minutes waiting in a long queue just to get in, which wasn’t a great first impression. Unfortunately, I was also misinformed by the ticketing attendant, who told me I could only load amounts of ¢100 or more onto my card, which I later found out wasn’t true.The park itself is visually appealing, with great music and a nice atmosphere. The bumper cars, mini golf and other activities for kids were definitely a highlight, and my family had fun with those. However, the entrance fee only gives you access to the basic areas, and you have to pay extra for the more interesting activities like the bumper cars, mini golf and the waterpark. One major downside was the long queues for food and drinks, and alcohol wasn’t available at the park. As the day went on, from around 5pm, there were a lot of mosquitoes, which made it uncomfortable.Another serious issue was the lack of running water in the washrooms. This is something that really needs to be addressed, as it affects the overall hygiene of the park.Finally, I was quite concerned by the company’s disclaimer stating they don't accept liability for injuries or even death on their premises. This raised some safety concerns, especially since some of the activities involve equipment that could potentially cause harm.In summary, while the park offers some fun activities and a lively atmosphere, there are many areas that need improvement, particularly in customer service, hygiene, and transparency regarding...
