Merbok River The Little Amazon

The jetty as we board the boat for our trip down the Merbok River ( Little Amazon )
The fishermen have the poles out for the nets to be set on.
One of many typical fishing villages along the river.
Can you imagine spending your life living on the river and fishing every day ??
The river is broad and beautiful with many islands, inlets and the Mangroves are amazing. They say some of the best in the world.
The salt water meets the fresh water in this river and it produces abundant wildlife and fish life . The locals call the river the Little Amazon
