America
Between two continents and two seas, the isthmus of Central
America is a biogeographical land bridge containing an astonishing
diversity and abundance of flora and fauna. Caribbean and
Pacific beaches border a land filled with white-water rivers
and waterfalls, tropical rain forests, active volcanoes,
mountain cloud forests, coral reefs and ancient Mayan ruins.
Rare and exotic wildlife protected in world-renowned national
parks and private reserves create the ideal adventure travel
and ecotourism opportunities. Today, the people of Costa
Rica, Belize, Honduras, Guatemala and Panama are
known for their warm hospitality and commitment to conservation,
democracy and peace. A relatively short distance from the
U.S., direct flight connections and low fares make the region
especially attractive not only during the dry season from
mid-December through April, but the year-round Spring-like
climate attracts travelers any month.
