Hvussu skotfiskiskap er meðfarið á Inshore Exclusion Zone (coastal waters).
Under Fisheries and Aquaculture Act, 2025 (Act 1146) s. 40, the Minister designates an inshore exclusion zone in coastal waters. Per s. 40(2)-(4) a person shall not use an industrial fishing vessel, a large semi-industrial vessel or a canoe support vessel to fish there, nor use towing gear; the zone 'shall be used exclusively by semi-industrial vessels, canoes and recreational fishing vessels' for fishing, fishing-related activities or research with gear prescribed by the Commission. Commentary reports the zone was expanded from 6 to 12 nautical miles. This is a gear/vessel-type exclusion that expressly contemplates recreational fishing vessels rather than a blanket ban on individual divers, but it confirms coastal fishing is regulated and licence-bound. Verbatim s. 40 text is in the law_texts block / Act 1146 PDF.

Fishing licences are issued by the Fisheries Commission. Ghanaian law recognises recreational fishing as a licensed category: Act 625 s. 60 required an application to the Commission for a recreational-fishing licence (accompanied by an environmental impact assessment), with recreational fishing 'carried on in accordance with such requirements as may be prescribed by Regulations'; Act 1146 carries the same definition of recreational fishing and, under s. 56, makes it an offence to use a Ghanaian fishing vessel or canoe for fishing without registering with the Commission and holding a licence (with parallel inland s. 67 and coastal s. 72 prohibitions). Licence renewal uses Form C of the Fisheries Regulations, 2010 (L.I. 1968), reg. 23, on payment of the prescribed fee. No recreational-angler or spearfishing-specific licence product, fee or validity period was found in the sources reviewed; prospective spearfishers should contact the Commission directly.
