Hi! Hola! Previt! Bon Jour! Ciao! Guten Tag! Sign up Now! for fun info on traveling to Latin America!

There are tons of amazing beaches all over Central America. You will find the right one for you whether it’s the Pacific or the Caribbean coast. I’m in love with so many of the beaches of this region that I decided to narrow it down to my favorite one of each country.

Top Beaches You Can’t Miss in Central America:

1. Ambergris Caye, Belize – This is the biggest island of Belize and is located on the second largest coral reef in the world, right on the Caribbean. There is a cute town with a laid-back ambience that offers amazing views of the sea. This is a great for adventure lovers interested in doing some diving, cruising, snorkeling and caving.

2. Roatan, Honduras – This is the largest of Honduras islands and is also located on the Caribbean. Here the ocean has a turquoise color because of the lightness of the sand. The water is so clear that it became one of the favorite spots for divers. Despite of its popularity it’s not one of those areas where everything is overprized.

3. San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua – This is another White sanded beach. It is located in Nicaragua’s Pacific Coast. This beach is known among surfers for its great breaks. Sport fishers also have a great time here. Without a doubt the most touristy area of Nicaragua, but if you come during the off season, the beaches are all yours and so are the waves!

4. Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica – This is one of the most popular beaches in Costa Rica because of its beauty and wildlife diversity. It is a beautiful white sanded beach located on the pacific coast and really close to the Manuel Antonio national park. This place is also known for its luxury accommodations.

5. Monterrico, Guatemala – This black sanded beach is not very popular among travelers, however what most of them don’t know is that it is a great place for surfing and watching endangered sea turtles as they lay their eggs on the beach. It is located in Guatemala’s Pacific coast and is the most popular beach of the country.

6. Bocas del Toro, Panama – This is a beautiful beach located on the Northern Caribbean coast of Panama with crystal clear waters. This is a relaxed beach town that offers a beautiful archipelago and all the activities that you could imagine.

7. Playa Tunco, El Salvador – This is one of the best beaches for surfing in Central America. It is a black sanded beach with tons of places where you can get surfing lessons. It surfing is not your thing you can spend hours enjoying the peaceful atmosphere at one of the many beachfront bars.

So which one is your pick for the next vacation?
