Village feature – Adventure, Corentyne - chairman - 06-24-2012
The village of Adventure on the Corentyne is quite small with a population of about 300, but it is well-known for being home to the Felix Austin Police College which trains new officers.
Located about 21 miles from New Amsterdam, Adventure is bounded by Hogstye and Limlair villages. The entrance to the farming community of Lesbeholden and the connecting areas in Black Bush Polder can be found at where the village begins.

This book starts out promisingly, with four men in a bar in Georgetown :
"Well sir," he began, in his incredibly cultured voice,
"I think you'd do well if you went to Adventure."
"Where?" asked Bob and I in unison.
"Adventure, sir," he stabbed at the map,
"it's a small village just here, near the mouth of the Essequibo."
I looked at Smith.
"We're going to Adventure," I said firmly.
"I must go to a place with a name like that."
