1 mission of Mauritius in Ghana: Consulate of Mauritius in Accra, Ghana. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mrs. Elizabeth Ekpoti Knaup, Honorary Consul (as of 2015)
Mauritius is an appealing destination for some Ghanaians, thanks to its stunning beaches, lush scenery, and rich cultural diversity. The island nation offers a mix of leisure and adventure, making it attractive to a segment of Ghana's 33 million population.
Mauritius is considered a relatively safe destination for tourists, including those from Ghana. According to the Global Peace Index, Mauritius ranks 22nd out of 160 countries, indicating a higher level of safety compared to Ghana, which ranks 54th. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Mauritius is 2.6 per 100,000 people, slightly higher than Ghana's rate of 1.8. However, when examining organized crime indices, Mauritius generally fares better than Ghana in several categories, such as mafia presence and arms trafficking. Overall, while no destination is completely without risk, Mauritius is regarded as a safer option for tourists compared to Ghana.
