All of your activities happen here at the drum school, under our beautiful thatch palapa on the edge of Punta Gorda town. Enjoy a morning or evening with us at Warasa. Your activity begins with a short history of the Garifuna history and culture. Then we will move onto a 40 minute professional group performance followed by a 20 minute dance lesson where you will learn some of the traditional dances like paranda, punta and jonkunu. Finally, if you wish to sample a Garifuna culinary delicacy, sit back and relax and enjoy a traditional Garifuna meal of “Hudut” – fresh fish fillet sauteed in coconut milk with mild spices and served with mashed plantain.
