Guatemala
The diversity of the geographic, climatic, cultural and historic features of Guatemala makes it ideally suited for a large number of activities and sports.
Guatemala has volcanoes that reach over 12,000 feet, beaches covered in black volcanic sand on both the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts, lakes inside volcanic craters, raging rivers, luscious rainforests with exotic plants and animals, arid desert habitats, the largest forest in the Americas after the Amazon, mangrove covered coastlines and small sleepy towns on mountainsides. Your choices of activities in Guatemala are endless: deep sea sport fishing on the Pacific coast; white water rafting in Retalhuleu; rock climbing or rappel; climb a volcano or see lava flows in Escuintla; swim with dolphins and manatees or see a banana plantation in Izabal. Or you can volunteer at a sea turtle preserve in Monterrico; watch a play or hear a symphony in Guatemala City; take a native American steam bath in the Central Highlands; eat a gourmet meal or try traditional Guatemalan cuisine anywhere in the country; water ski or jet ski in lakes or rivers; ride a horse in the mountains of Sacatep quez; take a cross country off road motorcycle tour; visit a World Heritage site, the colonial city of Antigua Guatemala or the archaeological National Park Tikal.
So you can see the problem in Guatemala is not what to do, but what to do first. Another attraction that Guatemala is only just being recognised for is its Sailfish. This country over the last five years has produced an incredible number of caught and tagged fish that if compared to the other more famous Sailfish destinations, would put it at the top of the world. It currently holds the record for the most Sailfish caught in one day; a staggering 76 fish caught by four anglers on one boat. All of these activities make this country an ideal destination for either anglers or non anglers alike.
