Comprised of seven small countries straddling the Pacific ocean and Caribbean sea, the land is generously populated with reptiles, birds and insects.

  • With the highest density of biodiversity of any country worldwide, Costa Rica offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities against a backdrop of pristine beaches, lush, quiet mountains, and close-knit villages
  • Work to improve education for Guatemalan children in a rural school and explore ancient archaeological ruins

Aside from Belize, Central America is a Spanish-speaking region, making it a top choice for students and travelers eager to immerse themselves in the language. It is also a popular region for first-time travelers from neighboring North America.
