Access

To get to Dégrad Yaya - Sud it is mandatory to take a pirogue (boat) from Saint-Laurent du Maroni or from Apatou. As previously said the journey is a bit laborious and if you only have a short time in Guyana I do not recommend the site.

________________________

Français: Pour se rendre sur le site il est obligatoire de prendre une pirogue depuis Saint-Laurent du Maroni ou depuis Apatou. Comme dit précédement le trajet est un peu laborieu et si vous n'avez que peu de temps en Guyane je ne vous conseil pas le site.
