The beaches in Suriname, I hear they are basically rivers? As in so many rivers lead to them that it takes on the color of it? True?

Hahahaa, yeah most of our beaches (strand in Dutch) are river shores, that either have sand- or mud banks. If people open up recreational swimming facilities in the rivers with mud banks, they'll throw piles of sand on the muddy area they're exploiting.
The Marowijne river (bordering with French Guyana) has a sandy "beach", so I enjoy(ed) swimming in that water.
Suriname does have a piece of shoreline that's connected to the ocean, but it's not safe to swim. I think I've been there once as a child and though I really wanted to go swimming, the water/waves was/were turbulent.
