The country's ongoing efforts to boost international visibility and promote cultural exchange further enhance its attractiveness to potential visitors from Cabo Verde.
Ghana is generally considered safe for tourists, including those from Cabo Verde. According to the Global Peace Index, Ghana ranks 54th out of 160 countries, indicating a relatively stable environment. In terms of crime statistics, Ghana has a lower murder rate at 1.8 per 100,000 people compared to Cabo Verde's 6.5.

When evaluating organized crime, Ghana scores higher than Cabo Verde in several areas, such as crime networks (6.5 vs. 4.0) and state crime (7.5 vs. 4.0), suggesting a more significant presence of organized crime. However, Cabo Verde has lower scores in areas like mafia groups (2.5 vs. 3.0) and human smuggling (2.0 vs. 5.0), indicating some strengths in its crime prevention. Overall, while both countries have their challenges, Ghana is relatively safe for tourists, with lower violent crime rates compared to Cabo Verde.
