Maicobi is an Amerindian settlement in the Potaro-Siparuni Region of Guyana, on the right bank of the Potaro River near Tumatumari. This community is populated by Amerindians only and is managed by a Village Captain, a Vice Captain and five councilors.

The area has approximately 30 households and subsistence farming is the main economic activity. There is no evidence of racial integration and this group has maintained some aspects of their culture. The people in Maicobi include members of the Macchusi, Carib and Patamona tribes. There are two shops at the entrance to the village, but most of the commercial activity is done at Tumatumari Landing. This village has one primary school and is accessed through the Potaro River.
