1. Blue Lake, 2. The Hot and Cold Lake, 3. Capoey Lake. Guyana is justifiably called the land of many glasses of water because of the numerous rivers, lakes, creeks, and streams that flow throughout its length and across its breath. There are some lakes in Guyana. The most beautiful lakes in Guyana are listed in the list below.
Blue Lake
Blue lake is situated in a place known as Wisroc. It takes about 2 1/2 hours of traveling by road from Georgetown to Wismar Linden. You will have to take the Soesdyke Highway and travel way down south of Guyana to go over the Linden Bridge. This Bridge Separates Mc Kenzie Village (Linden) from Wismar (Linden). The river you are going to cross is the Demerara River. Once you reach the bridge ask anyone for directions. Also, the roads are very good until you reach the road.
Two hills surround the lake on all sides. You may observe the amazing forest tree (tree canopies) from a distance once you have climbed the hill. Some of those trees are the breeding grounds for parrots and macaws, and you can hear their screams. The little lake that runs will also be visible. The lake’s entrance has a tiny area of rocks where you can have a quick picnic.
Because of the reflection of the sky, the water is incredibly clear and blue. The lake’s bottom is covered in pristine white sand. To swim, locals visit the lake. Some individuals thought that garbage from bauxite mining had contaminated the lake. Additionally, this lake has long been a popular destination for visitors to swim in. With the magnificent forest all around it, it is almost like a tropical paradise. Hence Blue lake is one of the most beautiful lakes in Guyana.

The Hot and Cold Lake
The Hot and Cold Lake is one of the most beautiful lakes in Guyana. It is the northern section of Itiribisi Lake, located in Essequibo. It was created naturally between the Mashabo and Onderneeming sand hills and receives its water from numerous natural springs as well as rainfall. Riverstown Creek serves as the lake’s drainage system for the ocean.
The lake is known for its allegedly therapeutic properties and is called ‘Hot and Cold’ because of its alternating temperatures. This is because a nearby undersea spring spews frigid water into the lake, giving the impression that it is both hot and cold.A loam trail with drooping trees must be followed in order to reach there. From the Suddie parking lot, it takes about 20 minutes to get to the campsite. A breathtaking view may be found on the hilltop above the campground. This perfect retreat offers tranquility and unspoiled nature.
Due to its open surroundings, the lake is the ideal place for camping, cookouts, boating, swimming, bird viewing, fishing, and other outdoor sports. For those who enjoy the outdoors and travel to Essequibo, the Hot and Cold Lake is unquestionably a must-see.

Capoey Lake
Capoey Lake is one of the most beautiful and largest lakes in Essequibo. It is situated on the Essequibo Coast, a trail break-off between Taymouth Manor and Alliance.
Visitors can admire Capoey’s magnificent beauty from that Lake’s apex. This is also where the majority of tourists spend their time when arranging a trip to Capoey, and while the lakeside village’s beige-hued beaches and rainbow-colored bungalows with thatched roofs may be sufficient for some, there is much more that Guyana’s tourism industry can benefit from this place.
Inside the Capoey Lake, on the western side, is a small lake called the Calabash Lake. Just behind Calabash Lake is a field that grows the sweetest aqueous (curos) in Region Two, and the crop is owned by no one in the village. In season, villagers flock to the area to harvest and pick up all the curios they can fetch, and from there they head straight to the major markets on the Essequibo Coast.
