Agbodrafo, or Safe Harbor (from Portuguese Porto Seguro), is a town in southern Togo in the Maritime Region, lying between the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Togo. [1] It grew around a Portuguese fort and was known to Europeans as Porto Seguro. It is now a popular seaside resort.
The city of Agbodrafo has been recognised as part of the "Slave coast". One can discover some vestiges of the past such as the "house of slaves" ( Woold Home) or the well of chained ones.
