Set at the meeting point of Brazil and Argentina, Foz do Iguaçu is defined by the sheer scale of the Iguaçu Falls. Nearly 275 individual waterfalls stretch across close to three kilometers, sending mist into the air and sound echoing through the surrounding forest.

San Ignacio sits in western Belize’s Cayo District on the banks of the Macal and Mopan Rivers, where the town and its sister settlement of Santa Elena are linked by Belize’s lone suspension bridge.

Amelia Island is a barrier island on Florida’s northeast coast, located near the Georgia state line and about 30 minutes north of Jacksonville. The island stretches roughly 13 miles and combines Atlantic beaches, salt marshes, maritime forests, and the historic port community of Fernandina Beach. Its compact size makes it possible to move easily between the oceanfront and the island’s historic districts, while waterways on the western side connect to the Intracoastal Waterway. T
