Central America
Bounded to the north by Mexico and to the south by Colombia. Central America is the strip of land the joins north and South America and consists of 7 countries: Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. It is a region full of natural beauty, diversity and anthropological history. Its 2 coasts run along the Pacific Ocean, with its attractive beaches, and Caribbean Sea.
Belize has the planet’s second largest barrier reef, several offshore atolls and the world famous Great Blue Hole. Honduras is world famous for its whale shark migrations. Costa Rica has some amazing national parks for encountering wildlife, plus some great surf, and scuba diving with whales and hammerhead sharks. Panama is a Mecca for backpacker tourism in the picturesque island getaway known as Bocas del Toro. Then there are countless ancient Mayan ruins to explore in this tropical wonderland.
