Resort : Querim Beach
Description: Querim Beach is at least three miles of nothing but sandy beach with a fringe of extremely tall pine trees.
Walking the beach at 10.00 in the morning we saw only two solitary figures. There are two shacks on the beach, both decidedly empty and hoping for business.
We felt a little sorry for them so stopped for a cooling drink and checking out the menu we were somewhat shocked to see the prices have remained as low as they were three years ago, even the most expensive item on the menu was only £2. We were too early in the day but usually in the afternoon it is common to see the fishermen in the estuary in their canoes. The canoes are dug out of jackfruit trees or teak and are handed down through the generations.
The estuary is a haven for birdlife. On a previous visit we saw three kinds of kingfisher, brown eagles and an endless list of wading birds. Querim is remote and beautiful and an ornithologist’s paradise.
