We cleared in and out at Bartica, all very nice and easy. Great anchorages on the river, and we anchored off the charming Hurakabra resort where for usd10/day we could use showers, drop off garbage. Food delicious and staff very friendly. Raj, the new owner, was not there but very helpful on whatsapp and keen to attract yacht visits.
Checking in fees: these have increased a lot.
Current fees are GUY$10000 to clear in (approx 50 USD) and the same again to clear out. (Large increase from the GUY$2500 we were expecting although apparently this has been in place for a few years). The figure was confirmed by another boat.
It is possible to get your passport stamped at Parika but not to clear your boat in. There isn’t currently a customs officer based there.
It should still be possible to stop there get passport stamped, pick up supplies then carry on to Bartica to clear the boat in. Food is cheaper in Parika than Bartica.
We cleared in in Molson Creek on the boarder with Suriname. This was fine but they are not used to dealing with yachts.
