LIBRAIRIE DU VIEUX BOURG

Located right next to the pier for the Isles of Salut, the Vieux Bourg bookshop is THE general bookshop in Kourou. Associated with Kazabul (which includes the two in Cayenne - La Cas'a Bulles and Légende du Colibri - and the one in Rémire-Montjoly Lettres d'Amazonie), this establishment boasts a vast collection of books on all themes (books on French Guiana and the West Indies in particular), as well as a section featuring a fine selection of comic strips. A pleasant, professional welcome: the perfect place to stop for a cultural break.
