Finding calm in Accra’s chaos; Date ideas to explore

Oftentimes, dates in Accra can feel like a playlist stuck on repeat. It’s boring and rigid.
The coffee dates, ice cream dates, and overpriced restaurants where the man shows up like he’s attending a board meeting and the lady struggles to move in that corset dress. Pronouncing the meals is a struggle, and conversations are forced over unknown dishes and clattering cutlery.

A pretentious meet and greet after a long day in Accra’s hustle and bustle? Sounds like pure torture.

But let’s switch it up a bit with Gaderin’s curated leisure experiences.

With Gaderin, dates do not feel like torture. It’s a great experience and a perfect way to unwind after a tedious day or week. Ready to try a new playlist and dive into new and exciting adventures? Here are three date ideas that will make outings in Accra worth your while.

Get your hands dirty

Now, when we say “get your hands dirty”, we’re not talking about Mike and Marcus in a Bad Boys showdown, where bullets fly and cars get crashed. We’re talking about dipping your hands in cool clay at a pottery workshop in the heart of Accra.

Imagine you and your date with sleeves rolled up, hands covered with clay, spinning wheels and your attempt at molding a pot fails. It’s shapeless and both of you can’t help but burst into uncontrollable laughter. Artisans help with the process but the clay just wouldn’t budge.

Memories are created over odd pots and a messy pottery session. The pots may not be perfect, but the moment shared leaves a trail of joy that lingers. Check it out.

Swing hard, spend a little

It’s often said that golf is a rich man’s sport but it’s time to flip that script. Would you believe me if I told you that you could unleash the Tiger Woods in you without breaking the bank?

Swinging clubs without a fat wallet is no longer a big deal. You and your date can have a great time at places like Montgomery Golf Resort, where the serene environment sets the tone for a perfect day out.

Picture this: a large golf course, just the two of you, having playful banter about who the better golfer is. Beginner lessons are available, and it’s pure vibes and laughter over missed balls and weak swings. There’s no pressure to impress whatsoever and Gaderin makes this experience easily accessible, affordable, and fun.

Just bring your A-game (and your date, of course).

Spice it up with ice

An ice plunge challenge is one of the most unconventional ways to unwind in Accra but trying new activities never hurt anybody.

It’s a guided immersion into ice-cold water to promote wellness and rejuvenate your mind and body. It’s about facing your fears while meeting your body’s needs. The experts will guide you through the experience to ensure it’s safe for you and your date (or even your friends).

It’s an exciting way to cool off from Accra’s heat and ditch those awkward dinner dates where you’re whispering “what’s Kensington languine?”

Gaderin makes this experience seamless and fun, all you need to do is come along with your swimsuit and some courage. Check it out.
