Guyana has more than 1,600 km of navigable waters, and numerous other waterways, some of which are yet to be discovered or travelled. The major rivers are the well-known Demerara River, Berbice River, and Essequibo River that all flow into the Atlantic Ocean.
The world-famous Kaieteur Falls is on the Potaro River, while another popular Falls, the Orinduik Falls lies on the Ireng River. Waterfalls and rapids sometimes limit transport and often make travel difficult, leaving some areas only accessible by plane.
A boat ride along any of Guyana’s rivers promises to be scenic and adventurous.
