Turquoise pools cascade down limestone terraces, inviting you to swim and explore hidden caves. Hike to the mirador for a bird's-eye view, then cool off in the Cahabón River's refreshing waters.

I think Semuc Champey in Guatemala is Heaven on Earth. Is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. A totally worth hike will take you to the top of the mountain to get this view of the natural pools formed by years of erosion. The very best definition of #GreatOutdoors
