The Kourou is a river in French Guiana.
The town of Kourou is located at its estuary, which is generally used as a pleasure port.
It has a length of approximately 140 km.
Like the river Amazon, it has brown, muddy waters due to sediments picked up from the forest. A great many different fish species live in the river, and are used in the local diet.
Like many Guyanaise rivers, it is polluted by mercury, as a result of clandestine gold mining.
