From Costa Rica's rain forests to the beaches of Belize, from Baja's desert lagoons to tropical islands off the Yucatan, Mexico and Central America harbor a greater diversity of species than anywhere else on Earth. Witness millions of monarch butterflies in Mexico’s forested highlands, 30-ton gray whales nurturing their young in Baja’s bays, and scores of colorful hummingbirds flitting about the cloud forest. Nowhere is the keen eye and intimate knowledge of our Expedition Leaders more imperative to a nature adventure than amid this fantastic biodiversity, as we explore remote natural realms rich in wildlife and wonder.
