Axim is a coastal town in the Ghanaian Coastal Plain.
Axim was a settlement that grew around the Portuguese Fort Santo Antonio dating to 1515, as well as the site of the making of the Akim Treaty between the Dutch and surrounding tribes after the Dutch took over in 1642 (which in 1872 would give way to the British). Today, it's a bustling town of over 25,000 with a local fishing fleet and some tourism related to the fort and beaches.
It's about 60 km west of Takoradi on N1.
While the community is small enough to be walkable, you'll probably want transportation of some sort to go to the fort and beaches, etc.
There are pretty beaches and islets here and there around Axim, just try not to be where the effluent or debris is coming out of the tenement below the fort.
Axim has this dichotomy of looking like a rave beach resort area versus a real humdinger of destitution, depending on whether you are near the fort or a bit removed from there.
