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.
Coming directly from Paramaribo, stepping off the boat that took us to Galibi from Albina was like stepping into another world. The atmosphere was very laid back in this fishing village, and the people are amerindians and looked completely different. They are actually Caribs who established Galibi as their capital of the region, Galibi being an old French name for Caribs. Galibi is called Kupali Yuma by the locals, meaning "tree of the forefathers". It actually consists of two villages: Christiaankondre and Langamankondre, which have now merged into one village along the banks of the Marowijne or Maroni river.
