Muni-Pomadze Ramsar Site, Protected wetland area near Winneba, Ghana.

The Muni-Pomadze Ramsar Site spans 300 hectares, featuring the Muni Lagoon surrounded by flood plains, sandy beaches, and two forest reserves named Yenku A and B.

The site received its Ramsar designation in 1992, establishing formal protection for its extensive water systems and diverse ecosystems that support migratory bird populations.

Local fishing communities of Nsuakyir and Warabeba maintain traditional practices while participating in conservation efforts to protect the wetland's natural resources.

Located 55 kilometers west of Accra, the site offers opportunities for bird watching with 48 documented waterbird species, including waders, terns, gulls, herons, and egrets.

During rainy seasons, villagers implement a traditional water management system by digging channels between the lagoon and sea to control flooding.
