Langatabiki (Dutch: Langatabbetje) is a Paramacca village in the Sipaliwini District of Suriname. Langatabiki is the residence of the granman of the Paramaccan people. Langatabiki is located in the Pamacca resort which was created on 11 September 2019 out of Tapanahony.[2]
Since 1879, a group of about 90 Maroon created a settlement on an island in the Marowijne River near the mouth of the Paramacca Creek. The town was named Langatabiki (Long Island). The granman at the time of the founding was called Apensa.[3]
