Wedged between Guatemala and Mexico, this flat, marshy region with just a few elevations in its southwest is largely covered in forests. Within these forests, you’ll discover several Mayan sites worth visiting (Altun Ha, Caracol, El Pilar, Lamanai...), as well as the coast, which—like the offshore islands—offers stunning beaches and great opportunities for exploring marine life.
