Agona is a coastal town in the Western Region of Ghana, located along the Gulf of Guinea, about 30 kilometers from the regional capital, Sekondi-Takoradi. A traditional fishing settlement, Agona is known for its active fishing port and artisanal fisheries, and the local population is mostly engaged in marine-related livelihoods.
The economy is centered on fishing, with a lively fish market forming early in the morning when the fishing boats return to port. Some residents grow cash crops such as coconuts and oil palms. The town retains the cultural traditions of the Akan people of southwestern Ghana, with traditional dances and drumming performances at festivals.
It is located in a tropical rainforest climate zone, surrounded by mangrove wetlands and sandy beaches.
