Peru, Colombia, Honduras... Where should you fly to in Latin America? LatinAmerican Post shares its list of incredibly beautiful regions.

La Guajira, Colombia

Recently, Colombia has become a popular destination for tourists from all over the world. In 2016, a peace agreement was signed and traveling in this country has become much safer. Therefore, we recommend visiting the La Guajira Peninsula, which is considered the northernmost point of South America. This is a rare tourist destination located on the Caribbean coast.

Tambopata, Peru

When we hear about Peru, we immediately think of Machu Picchu. However, this is not the only place that deserves your attention. We recommend that you pay attention to the Tambopata Nature Reserve, which preserves the ecosystems of the subtropical jungle covered with gold. Going there, you have the opportunity to enjoy the plants and animals that live there in natural conditions. The reserve also has several lagoons that are surrounded by various birds.

Los Roques National Park, Venezuela

The park was created in 1972 to preserve the marine ecosystem, its beauty, and value. It is the largest marine park in the Caribbean with an area of 546 square miles. It is famous for its scuba diving, kitesurfing, and sport fishing. You can also fly over the archipelago in a light glider.

Marble Caves, Chile

They are located in the south of the country in Lake General Carrera, which connects Chile with Argentina. The caves are over 6,000 years old. The unusually rich turquoise color of the water and rocks attracts tourists.

Uyuni Salt Flats, Bolivia

One of the most popular tourist destinations in Bolivia. The Uyuni salt flats are the largest in the world, and the city of Uyuni is located on its edge. Here you will see a beautiful white landscape that resembles a snow dune, but it's actually salt. It's an impressive place where travelers often set up camp.

Llanganates National Park, Ecuador

A protected area in Ecuador. Here is the peak of Cerro Hermoso, whose name translates to "beautiful mountain". Its height is 4,570 meters. The mountain is a popular destination for hiking. The park is famous for the Llanganates treasures, which are various artifacts made of precious stones that are believed to be hidden deep in the mountain range.

Pulhapanzac Falls, Honduras

This is one of the best natural landscapes in Central America. Here you can go on a tour of waterfalls and caves. You can also take advantage of all the amenities: a playground for children, benches where you can stop and have a snack, a small shop selling souvenirs, snacks, clothes, and a restaurant.

Fernando de Noronha National Marine Park, Brazil

The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a protected area. Consequently, the inhabitants have established borders with the rest of the continent, which isolates the archipelago and makes it rarely visited by tourists. The park is home to rare animals such as various species of turtles, sharks, crabs, and tropical birds. If you are seeking tranquility, this is the perfect place to enjoy beaches surrounded by hills and cliffs.

Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve, Costa Rica

In addition to beaches, we recommend paying attention to the Monteverde Cloud Forest. The reserve was founded in 1972 and covers an area of more than 10,000 hectares. It consists of six ecological zones, with 90% of the territory occupied by majestic virgin forests. The fauna is very diverse: 100 species of mammals, 400 species of birds, 120 species of reptiles and amphibians, and thousands of insects. That is why this natural area attracts not only tourists but also scientists.

Corn Islands, Nicaragua

This is a group of islands 70 kilometers east of the country's Caribbean coast. They were discovered by Christopher Columbus during his last voyage in 1502-1504. The islands are becoming increasingly popular with tourists due to their coral reefs, which attract divers and snorkelers.
