💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~11.7 hours of daylight in January — the plan keeps days inside a realistic window.
- The dry season's beach weekends: Abidjan's maquis grills at full char, Bassam's colonial quarter in soft light, and Assinie's lagoon-and-ocean sandbar at its lounging best.
- Light day: day 4 has one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill it — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
