Workation in Tamale: the essentials
Ghana's third-largest city lies far north in the savanna, with about 375,000 people at the 2021 census and a culture shaped by the Dagomba and the old Kingdom of Dagbon. Tamale began as a village and grew after the British set up their northern administration here, becoming capital of the Northern Region in 1960. Farming and trade run the economy, and motorbikes and bicycles fill the streets. Mole National Park is the classic trip from here. Tamale International Airport is about 11 km out, with flights to Accra. The harmattan brings dusty winds in the dry season, and facilities for visitors are basic.
