Suriname: Natural Landscape
Suriname is located on South America's northeastern Atlantic coast. It borders Guyana to the west, French Guiana to the east, Brazil to the south, and the Atlantic Ocean to the north. The country's Atlantic coastline offers a mix of coastal wetlands, river estuaries, and dense mangrove forests. Suriname is the smallest sovereign state on the continent, yet its geographical diversity and ecological significance are remarkable. Its rich biodiversity is primarily concentrated in its dense tropical rainforests, which cover approximately 90% of the country's total land area—the highest forest cover worldwide.
