Suriname’s hidden jungles and wild coasts redefine off-grid travel
Suriname remains one of South America’s least explored destinations. This small country boasts dense jungles, untouched rivers and a coastline along the Atlantic Ocean. Its mix of Indigenous, Indian, Javanese and Dutch influences adds to its unique appeal for travelers seeking adventure beyond typical tourist spots.
The nation’s natural landscapes stand out for their raw beauty. Unlike Caribbean neighbors, its Atlantic beaches are muddy rather than lined with turquoise waters. Inland, thick Amazonian rainforests stretch across much of the country, offering guided excursions and river trips deep into unspoiled wilderness.
With its blend of cultural diversity, untamed nature and strong safety record, Suriname offers an off-the-beaten-path alternative. Direct flights from Miami and unique lodging options help open up the country to curious travelers. The mix of Amazonian adventures and Indigenous village stays sets it apart from more crowded destinations.
