Good News for Rio Dulce

Published 15 years ago, updated 5 years ago

Daphne Becker of Tortugal Marina reports;

The Guatemallan Navy/Coast Guard is patrolling Rio Dulce in the area where most vessels are concentrated, which includes the following marinas: Tortugal, Tijax, Mario’s Monkey Bay, Mar Marine, Nana Juana, Catamaran, Bruno’s.

This 24-hour patrol began October 2008 and no further incidents have been reported within the patrolled area.

For the time being, it is best to plan to check into Livingston early in the morning and proceed up-river to anchor or pick up a mooring near one of the marinas mentioned above.

The organization of hotel and marina owners hopes that the government of Guatemala will extend this very successful program to other areas in Rio Dulce, such as the Canyon, Rio Tatin, and Livingston.
