Great cafe and a great marina. You are parked in the very centre of the town close to some restaurants, a playground and a swimming pool. The whole staff is friendly and helpful and the owner knows lots about the place as well as sailing around and is happy to share the knowledge. Thanks to him we extended our stay in Guyane and had an incredibly good time.
