Welcome to
The Essequibo River Region

As the largest river in Guyana, the Essequibo has a long and winding journey of over 1000 miles from the Acarai Mountains near the border with Brazil to the Atlantic Ocean. Along its path, its many tributaries enrich an unrivalled ecosystem of waterfalls, rainforest and amazing wildlife. After circling around hundreds of islands, this remarkable river skirts the town of Parika for the last few miles before draining into the vast ocean.
