Oases along the Linden highway

Guyana is known for its refreshing black water creeks along the Soesdyke/Linden Highway, and many flock to the creeks on holidays or scorching, sunny weekends, just to spend time with family and friends.

The Hauraruni creek, Umbrella Resort and Yarrowkabra creek are considered to be the highway’s hotspots for recreation, and are all packed every weekend and holidays, as many resort to their waters for a relaxing getaway. Another oasis, which is also crowded on weekends, is the creek outside Splashmins Resort, known to many as the ‘Red Water’ creek.

These watery oases are just a couple of hours away from the capital city and are ideal for family picnics, barbecues or just a getaway from city life, and now come equipped with benabs, washroom facilities, and shops and play areas for children. A small fee is charged at each creek, for their maintenance, when visiting.

For a day of fun, sun, sand, and did we mention water? Guyana’s creeks on the Soesdyke/Linden Highway are the ideal oases. (Taken from Guyana Times Sunday Magazine)
