The main town, Nieuw Nickerie, serves as a gateway to the district's many attractions and is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas. One of the most captivating features of Nickerie is the Bigi Pan Nature Reserve. This protected area is a haven for birdwatchers, boasting a diverse array of avian species, including flamingos and scarlet ibises.

The reserve's unique landscape of mangroves, swamps, and lagoons provides a picturesque setting for photography and relaxation. For those interested in cultural experiences, Nickerie does not disappoint. The district is home to a mix of ethnic communities, including Hindustani, Javanese, and Afro-Surinamese, each contributing to the rich tapestry of local culture. Visitors can explore bustling markets, sample delicious local cuisine, and partake in traditional festivals. The annual rice festival is a highlight, celebrating the region's agricultural heritage with music, dance, and food. Nickerie's coastal location also makes it ideal for fishing and boating activities. The Corantijn River, which forms the border with Guyana, is a popular spot for fishing excursions. Additionally, the district's coastline features beautiful, unspoiled beaches where visitors can enjoy a peaceful day by the sea. Whether you're a nature lover, culture enthusiast, or simply seeking a tranquil retreat, Nickerie District offers a unique and fulfilling travel experience.
