Monkey
River Town
In
the event that a visit to Barranco is not possible, we usually visit the Creole
fishing village of Monkey River Town at the mouth of the Monkey River.
This trip includes a trip by boat from Placencia to the mainland (we have seen
dolphin and manatee) and a boat ride up the monkey river where wild life can be
observed along the banks. We can take a walk into a forest preserve
leading to a colony of howler monkeys. Sometimes we stop at a sand bar for
watermelon and a swim. We tour the village as we hear about the
history of the settlement and have lunch before making our journey back to
Placencia.
