Remiel-Moncholy is the third largest city of French Guiana in the French Overseas Region, located about 15 kilometers south of Cayenne on the Atlantic coast. The city was formed in 2019 by the merger of the two former municipalities of Rémyr and Montjoli, and is now one of the major administrative and commercial centers of French Guiana.
The city is located in a tropical rainforest climate zone with an average annual temperature of about 27°C and abundant precipitation. It is adjacent to the famous Kourou Space Center (European Space Launch Complex) in the west and to the Atlantic coastline in the east, with a unique mangrove ecosystem and beach landscape.
Thanks to its proximity to the Kourou Space Center, Rémyré-Montjorie is an important support point for the services of the aerospace industry chain. The local economy is dominated by services, commerce and aerospace support industries, while traditional fishing and agricultural activities are maintained.
As a multicultural mix, Rémyré-Montjoli incorporates elements of Creole, French and Brazilian cultures. Visitors can explore colonial architecture, participate in Mardi Gras celebrations, or observe Amazonian wildlife at the neighboring Rémyré Zoo, an important gateway to experience the natural and human characteristics of French Guiana.
