For the purposes of this website, we’re defining the Latin America Waterfalls to include the waterfalls that we’ve visited in Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Although there are other widely varying interpretations of the term Latin America, we’re sticking with the above interpretation.

Generally, it’s predominantly Spanish that’s spoken in this part of the world, but there are exceptions such as Brazil (Portuguese) and Guyana (English) among others.

We’ve only scratched the surface of what’s possible in Latin America and Caribbean super region. We hope to be fortunate enough to visit many more of the Latin American waterfalls and share our experiences with you…
