2nd Edition Published : 13th Feb 2020 248 PAGES The first dedicated
English-language guidebook to an emergent and largely unspoiled ecotourist
destination otherwise overlooked by the travel publishing industry. Peaceful and
politically stable, Suriname is one of the world's five most thinly populated
countries. Its Caribbean coastline is famed for its peerless turtle-watching
opportunities, while the interior is swathed by a vast tract of pristine
Amazonian rainforest rich in wildlife and accessible only by air or along the
tropical waterways that incise the interior. The guide will include a detailed
introduction to the diverse wildlife and intriguing history of the only former
Dutch colony in South America, along with detailed regional coverage of the
tropical coastline, the historic inner city of the culturally diverse capital
Paramaribo (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and the thrilling opportunities for
exploration afforded by the Upper Suriname River and elsewhere in the
jungle-swathed interior. - See more at:
