A Journey Through Suriname’s Nature
Suriname’s natural beauty is unparalleled. From its lush rainforests to its grand rivers, this country is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Notably, the Amazon rainforest covers nearly 93% of Suriname, making it one of the most forested countries in the world. Imagine canoeing through rivers, surrounded by dense greenery and the sounds of exotic wildlife. For tourists and locals alike, the journey through these landscapes is nothing short of magical.
Furthermore, one of our featured photographers, Fabian Vas, captures this magic through his stunning drone photography. His images of Suriname’s vast, untouched wilderness offer a bird’s-eye view of the country’s incredible biodiversity. Whether it’s the dense canopy of the rainforest or the winding rivers that snake through the landscape, Fabian’s work highlights the beauty of Suriname’s natural treasures. These stunning visuals are a testament to why Suriname is one of the best travel destinations for nature lovers.

The Cultural Mosaic of Suriname
Suriname is a melting pot of cultures, with influences from Indigenous, African, European, Indian, Javanese, Chinese and Latin American communities. As a result this cultural diversity is reflected in its festivals, cuisine, and architecture. For instance. the historic inner city of Paramaribo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a testament to the country’s rich history and multicultural heritage. Walking through the streets of Paramaribo, you’ll find Dutch colonial buildings standing alongside mosques, synagogues, and Hindu temples. A true representation of harmony in diversity.
Similarly, our photographers capture the essence of Paramaribo’s cultural heritage. Their images of traditional wooden houses, colonial architecture and vibrant street scenes tell the story of a city that thrives on its multicultural identity. One of our many striking pieces showcases the majestic St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, the largest wooden cathedral in the Americas. This architectural masterpiece is a must-visit for tourists exploring Paramaribo and a highlight of Suriname’s cultural tourism.

A Dream Destination for Wildlife Enthusiasts
Suriname is a wildlife enthusiast’s dream destination. Its rainforests are home to an incredible array of flora and fauna, including jaguars, giant river otters, and the iconic harpy eagle. For travelers and tourists, Suriname offers numerous opportunities to connect with nature. Peperpot Nature Park, for instance, is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Located just a short drive from Paramaribo, this park is home to a variety of bird species, including toucans and parrots. Coco Duivenvoorde’s artistic photography of the Palulu flower, a native plant, beautifully captures the delicate interplay of color and form in Suriname’s flora. These visual stories make Suriname a top destination for eco-tourism and wildlife photography.
