A quiet town on the banks of the Marowijne river, Galibi is the starting point for seeing turtles laying their eggs, but also offers a good opportunity to see local village life among the Indians.
Galibi is very quiet, and built spaciously - each house seems to be a separate entity as there is ample space between one house and the next, giving the inhabitants a lot of privacy. Some houses are built on stilts in the typical Caribbean way, but there are also structures built directly on the sand. There are many footpaths connecting different parts of the village, almost all running roughly north-south along the banks of the Marowijne river. There are no cars, and the footpaths are all sandy, which gives any walk in this settlement a relaxing atmosphere.
