Awarradam island is located near the rapid with the same name, approx. 225 km from Paramaribo. The local people pronounce the name as ‘Awaadan’. ‘Awaa’ (Awara) is an orange-colored palm fruit and ‘dan’ (dang) means rapid. Awarradam lies in the Gran Rio river which joins the Pikin Rio river, 30 km upstream. At this point the Upper Suriname river begins, flowing out into Brokopondo hydro lake, 75 km upstream. The river gets its water from rainfall. The water level in the dry season can be as much as 6 meters lower than in the rainy season! The village Atyoni, somewhat south of the hydro lake, is the most southern destination in Suriname that can be reached by road. From Paramaribo, the trip takes 4 to 5 hours. The boat trip to Awarradam takes 8 to 10 hours, depending on the water level. The airplane takes you to Kajana in 50 minutes. The remaining 10 km are continued by dug-out canoe. Awarradam lies at approx. 20 minutes by boat, south from the last village in the area. So you will reach your destination in one and a half hour.
