Question

How many beaches are there in Guatemala?

Answer 1

Your question is too broad.  Do you mean beaches on the ocean?  Beaches on Lakes?  Beaches on both?  There are hundreds of beaches throughout the country.  I've personally been to over 25 in the short time I've spent in Guatemala.  Several beaches on the Pacific are too dangerous because of the current.  You could swim there, but you may not make it back to shore.  I'm a great swimmer and I wouldn't dare enter the water any deeper than my knees at some of these beaches.  You have beaches on Lake Atitlan, Lago Izabel, Puerto Barrios, San Jose, Montericco, and several other places.  I don't think there is any way of giving you an exact number since they are so plentiful.

Answer 2

Beaches or GOOD beaches? Guatemala has no good beaches like you'd find in Mexico or the Caribbean. The Pacific coast does have some black volcanic beaches that will melt your sneakers if you walk on them in the daytime, and the most dangerous rip-tides I've ever seen. If you are looking for wide, white sandy beaches, go to Belize. If you are looking for surf, go to Mexico or El Salvador.

Answer 3

the entire west coast of guatemala is 'a beach' (Pacific Ocean) plus there are beaches on the east side (Carribean) and then lots of gorgeous lakes (lagos) with impressive beaches!

you need to be a little more specific!
