Camopi is accessible neither by road nor by trail. You can reach it by pirogue from Saint-Georges de l'Oyapock (3 to 8 hours depending on the season) or by light aircraft from Félix-Éboué Airport in Cayenne (approximately 45 minutes).
Since 2014, the main village of Camopi is no longer in a restricted access zone. However, certain Amerindian settlements such as Trois-Sauts require a prefectural permit, which must be requested from the prefecture of French Guiana.
The rainy season (April to June) makes pirogue navigation easier, while the transitional season (December to March) is ideal for wildlife observation.
There is no hotel in the village. Accommodation is in carbets — traditional open-sided shelters for hammocks — most often with local families.
