Central America - MSN Encarta |
 | | The longest rivers of Central America flow to the Caribbean, and many small rivers drain into the Pacific. |
 | | Longer rivers include the Motagua of Guatemala; the Ulúa, Aguán, and Patuca of Honduras; the Coco, which forms part of the Honduras-Nicaragua boundary; the Río Grande and Escondido of Nicaragua; and the San Juan, which forms a section of the Nicaragua-Costa Rica border. |
 | | Some of the rivers flowing to the Caribbean are navigable by small craft, but flowing to the Pacific are too steep or too shallow for navigation. |
