Nature & Waterfalls

Livingston’s landscape features a network of limestone caves, freshwater lagoons, and coastal waterfalls. Los Siete Altares consists of seven tiered pools emptying into the Caribbean, while the Rio Dulce National Park protects a corridor of mangroves and manatee habitats. Inland, the Cueva Tigre and Grutas el Encanto offer subterranean river systems and jungle-shrouded rock formations, and El Golfete provides a wide expanse for observing aquatic wildlife within the Chocón Machacas Biotope.
