Trip to the Sea Wall

Georgetown is surrounded by water on two sides: West side by the Demerara River and the North side by the Atlantic Ocean--very brown, muddy water! Since the town is below sea level, there is a sea wall on the North. Lots of people visit and also it has become a walk-way for the exercisers, especially in the mornings and late evenings! One day while in Georgetown, we took a quick excursion along the wall. The tide was out and so the ocean was lower than usual; but during the rainy season, it has been known to flood over this wall.



We explored and found a sanctuary for birds, fish, and monkeys.
