See what the Chorkor Beach looked like in the 1960s

A photo of what is believed to be the Chorkor Beach from the 1960s has emerged online.

Shared by Ablade TV Online, the photo showed a clean beach with some scattered residents standing around it.

Some others are also seen afar off, on a canoe, while some others are pictured surrounding a thatch structure, in what appears to be a small ceremony.

It is unclear if this is a real photo or a painting, but the page that shared it captioned it as:

“Our beloved Chorkor (beach) in the 1960s. Clean and refreshing. Let’s bring back what used to be.”
