Getting To And Around
The only way to get to Shell Beach is by boat, as the ecosystem is made of mangroves and swamps. Mabaruma is the main hub and jumping off point for day trips. Due to the cost of getting there and the optimal viewing times, securing permission from the Protected Areas Commission to overnight at Almond Beach is recommended.
Air
The easiest and fastest route from Georgetown is to take a flight from Eugene F. Correia International Airport to Mabaruma, which takes approximately 50 minutes.
Road
Alternatively, speedboats are available from Charity to Mabaruma. Once in Mabaruma, a boat can be hired from Kumaka Wharf to Almond Beach to see the turtles or to other parts of Shell Beach.
