This island is important as a bird-watching site because it is a stopover point for many migratory birds.

The town has many attractions such as the sandy beaches, general cleanliness and local storytelling in Ewe.

However, one can construct a time frame from oral tradition and artefacts especially about those of the early chiefs and wars.

Short history of church and school A short history of the A.M.E. Zion Church (Revival Society) and the A.M.E. Zion Basic School, Seva Introduction Until recently, when a road was carved through from Konu, near Anyako, Seva was a complete island surrounded by a body of brackish water― the Keta Lagoon.

Around this time, the Salvation Army Church had begun to establish its presence in Seva under the leadership of one Godwin Segbawu from Woe.

As time went on, this group of children (now educated young men) formed an association called the Seva Literacy Club with the objective of bringing western education to Seva―and through the initiative of the club, the Salvation Army started a school in N.B Zaney's house at Seva.

However, at a point, the club could no longer afford the monthly remuneration of thirty (30) shillings it had agreed to pay Mr Segbawu for his services as a teacher.

This sent the Salvation Army Church packing off after three years of missionary work and after having started a school in Seva.

Alfred A. Adjahoe, the then Presiding Elder, Bishop's Deputy and Pastor-in-Charge of the St John A.M. E. Zion Church, Keta, with the request which was approved after meeting with members of the church cabinet, officers and leaders.

Then came Reverend Albert Sevor from Agavedzi who made a significant contribution to the laying of the foundations of the church in Seva.

Sevor started with zeal and led the school children and a few other persons of the town, instructing them in the word and teaching them the Creed, the Lord ’s Prayer and the Commandments.

Adjahoe wanted an outright purchase of the land together with the coconut trees but Amega Alorgbodzi declined the request and it was agreed that the land was a gift, but the coconut trees and their fruits belonged to the original landowner in perpetuity.

Fortunately, the Department of Social Welfare and Community Development came to the aid of the church by providing a quantity of cement and roofing sheets for the reconstruction of the school.

Zaney was the first to donate fifty-five (55) bags of cement which were molded into blocks for the construction of the chapel.

Other donations for the chapel building project were made on Easter Sunday services through appeals for fund.

To address the challenge of fording the lagoon to and from Anyako on a daily basis for their middle school education, the Town Development Association, in collaboration with the chiefs of the town, sent a delegation to the District Assistant Director of Education, Keta, in the later part of 1964 to apply for the establishment of a Middle school at Seva.

By the beginning of the 1964/65 academic year, permission was granted for the establishment of a middle school in Seva, with Mr Acquayee from Anyako, as the first head teacher who was succeeded by Mr. Zaglago, followed by Mr. A.K.

Upon the introduction of the junior high school concept, Mr Nyonyo was transferred from Kedzi to take over as the first headmaster.

When Mr. Nyonyo was transferred, Mr Dzimabi assumed duty as acting headmaster until a substantive head in the person of Mr. Dogbey was posted to Seva.

Indeed, one can hardly forget to mention Lawyer David Agorsor, a product of the Seva primary and middle school system.

The first group of graduates of the middle school were Eva Agorsor, Gershon Torsu, Simon Alemawor, Paulina Agezo, Elizabeth Hukporti, Alice Kumordzi, Lucia Womoakor, Bertha Kudekor, Keneth Doe, Freeman Alemawor, Julius Abiemo, Bradina Sosu, Emmanuel Ziga Kudekor, Daniel Seke Dogbey, Bernard Kofi Hukporti, Francis Kwasi Bokorvi and Brilliant Besa Dzimabi.

And, among the firstgroup of JHS graduates in 1990 were Kokui Eunice Akpanya, Vivian Kpodo, Charity Amese, Dora Amewoseanyana, Mawusi Avukpor, Bernice Kwasiwor Ocloo, Besa Kudekor, Peter Fanam Dzaka, Israel Kongo and Ephraim Amese.
