The terrain of Izabal ranges from Caribbean lowlands along its northern coast to forested highlands in the south, giving the department a distinctly tropical character. Guatemala’s largest lake, Lake Izabal, lies at its centre, and the Río Dulce carries its waters east towards the Caribbean Sea. Puerto Barrios is Guatemala’s principal Caribbean port, while the nearby town of Livingston is known for its Garifuna community and Afro-Caribbean cultural traditions. Inland, the UNESCO-listed Maya site of Quiriguá preserves monumental stone stelae beside the Motagua River.
