Like much of the coastal areas of Guyana, Georgetown lies under sea level - it is protected by a seawall which by now does more than just protecting against the Atlantic.
More than just a defensive construction against the ocean, the Georgetown seawall has acquired many more functions. Not only used as an obvious place for advertisement, it also attracts crowds on Sunday who come here to relax, picnic, play music and dance, runners use the wall for their training, cyclists ride the top, people come to pray or just go for a stroll. Which is exactly what I did one morning; I walked the seawall, mostly straight, but sometimes curved, just as the terrain dictates. While walking on top of the wall, you can clearly see how the land behind it is lower than the sea - a strange sensation. At one point, the wall got narrower and I continued walking next to it. It gave me a better position to study the writings on the wall before returning to the city.
