Moleson Creek is a community on the Corentyne River in the East Berbice-Corentyne region of Guyana, located at 5°30′0″N 57°15′0″W / 5.5°N 57.25°W. It is north of Orealla Mission, 10km south of Corriverton, and approximately 90 km from New Amsterdam.
Since 1998, the CANAWAIMA ferry connects South Drain with South Drain in Suriname.[1] This is the only legal connection between the two countries, but before the repavement of the road between South Drain and Nieuw Nickerie many travelers preferred to take a back-track route.[2]
