Description:Ecotourism Central America describes the spectacular wildlife, nature and landscapes of Central America ... and includes the practicalities to help you explore. With over 500,000 words, it is a comprehensive and detailed resource: • Detailed chapters cover exploration styles such as birdwatching, whale watching, snorkelling and long-distance hiking. • Maps, GPS coordinates, self-guided activities, bird lists, mammals lists, detailed walking-routes and more contribute to detailed descriptions of 696 ecotourism destinations across the region. • A fully illustrated identification guide to Central America that covers 323 birds, mammals, plants and other wildlife. Note that the illustrations are stylised. • Transport, accommodation and other practical advice is given for all budgets and travel styles, including for day trips, multi-week itineraries, independent travel, travel in a group, backpacking, driving tours and hiking. • Additional logistical information is included, such as transport and accommodation options in major cities, meaning this book is all you need to plan your trip. • Archaeological information means you can incorporate visits to Mayan (and other) ruins into your itinerary. • This ebook version has a large number of internal links to make navigation easy. If your ereader supports colour, the maps and identification content are in full colour. If your ereader is in black and white, everything is still completely readable with (for example) different shapes used to differentiate the map icons. • Highlights of Central America include: vast wetland landscapes home to active birds of all shapes and sizes; rainforest home to secretive but occasionally inquisitive mammals; dramatic desert landscapes; trails through national parks, often with camping and accommodation for overnight stays; rural roads suitable for hiking through varied terrain; colourful birds to be seen in all habitats; wildlife living amidst Mayan (and other) ruins; coral reefs full of life; high-altitude cloudforest home to specialist wildlife; networks of rivers and lakes suitable for canoeing and kayaking; vast flocks of tens of thousands of migrating birds of prey and; much more. • A dedicated birdwatching section describes the bird regions, bird sightings and even includes a statistical and graphical analysis of the sightings data to inform your own explorations objectively and accurately. • A history and archaeology section sheds light on how the past (and its visible remains today) impacts exploration opportunities and wildlife distributions across the region. • A sequence of 29 full-page photographs is designed to teach key wildlife-identification skills and techniques for Central America. You can attempt to identify each photograph yourself (using the identification guide earlier in the book) before turning the page for a full explanation. • Cross-referencing throughout the book makes the links between the information clearer. This adds value and means the book does not simply feel like an encyclopedia; instead (despite its large size and wide coverage) it is an engaging read. All the recommendations within this book have been carefully curated and are based on visits to the actual destinations to give you the best possible unbiased information.
