Hotels in Rio Dulce, Guatemala
Rio Dulce is a tropical river and lake region in eastern Guatemala, famous for its lush jungle and the 16th-century Castillo de San Felipe fortress built to guard against pirates. The climate is hot and humid year-round, with averages around 80°F (27°C); the dry season from November to April is perfect for boat tours through the steep-sided canyon of the Rio Dulce and spotting howler monkeys, while the rainy season from May to October offers fewer crowds and a chance to relax in the hot springs of El Paraíso.
