Belize
Belize showcases a diverse topography characterized by a variety of landscapes ranging from coastal plains to rugged mountains. The eastern region features a narrow coastal plain that runs along the Caribbean Sea, characterized by flat terrains interspersed with mangrove swamps, sandy beaches, and lagoons, as well as the famous Belize Barrier Reef, the second-largest barrier reef in the world. Moving inland, the landscape transitions to fertile lowlands and savannas, where key rivers like the Belize River meander through the terrain, creating vital habitats for wildlife. To the west, the Maya Mountains rise prominently, with steep slopes and dense rainforests, including the highest point in the country, Doyle's Delight, which reaches 3,688 feet (1,124 meters). This varied topography not only supports rich biodiversity but also makes Belize an attractive destination for ecotourism and outdoor activities.
