Serene Bonasika feels left behind

Alice Zephania

The tranquil atmosphere and picturesque scenery in Upper Bonasika Creek, Essequibo River is so captivating that you can easily adapt to the simple life, away from basic utilities. 

The different species of trees that line both sides of the smooth blackwater is spectacular and their beauty is enhanced through the full reflection in the mirror-like water.

The speedboat journey from the wharf at St. Lawrence, East Bank Essequibo, took almost one hour.
