The absolute best for nature lovers

This largest tropical rainforest covers more than 85% of the Surinamese landmass. And no one has ever been in the majority of this rainforest before. This makes the flora and fauna here untouched.

In the rainforest of Suriname, you can find more than 5,000 plant species and an enormous variety of animals, such as; jaguars and other felines, tapirs, otters, 7 species of monkeys, 24 species of parrots and several special reptiles and snakes.

This lodge can only be reached by plane and is built near a small metrological station, deep in the jungle. Within a radius of more than 300 kilometres, no village or other lodge can be found. This makes that the nature here is unspoiled and that is noticeable. It is without doubt one of the best places in South America to spot wildlife. 

Kabalebo is a great place to visit with your children. First of all, because animals are easy to spot here. The team at the Kabalebo Nature Resort is very nice and, above all, dedicated people, who will do everything they can to make your stay as pleasant as possible. 

There where the Suriname and Commewijne rivers meet to bridge the final gap to the Carribean Sea, a school of Sotalia dolphins lives. These dolphins are commonly known as pink river dolphin. It is a very rare dolphin species, which can only be found in the Guyana’s. it is possible to spot these dolphins when the sun sets. A unique spectacle.

Sea turtles come ashore in the Matapica nature reserve, in the east of Suriname, to lay their eggs from mid-January until the beginning of August. Here, you will find very special and rare turtle species such as the huge leatherback turtle, the green turtle, and if you are lucky, the warana and hawksbill turtle.
