The coasts of Mexico
and Central America encompass a wide variety of climates
and attractions that are unique to Latin America. Following
the migratory route of humpback whales along the warmer
waters of Mexico's southern Baja peninsula you will
discover secluded island beaches framed by serene desert
landscape where the Sea of Cortez and Pacific Ocean
merge in a sport-fisher's paradise. Yet further south
and east, the more lush cities of mainland Mexico are
home to luxurious resorts, golf courses, and cultural
monuments. Costa Rica boasts a tropical diversity that
literally spills onto her exciting beaches and is noted
for its world class scuba diving off Cocos Island. Panama's
canal is renowned as the gateway to the Caribbean, flanked
by the fertile Las Perlas archipelago to the west and
the palm covered San Blas Islands to the east - home
to the Kuna Yala natives, who still employ dugout canoes
to move between their Islands. The largest barrier reef
in the Northern Hemisphere lies within reach of Belize's
laid-back beaches - the perfect destination for the
underwater enthusiast.
