Because it is located on a continent, Suriname is considered a mainland country.

Specifically, Suriname is located on the northern part of the South American continent. It therefore is not an island. Although it is one of the thirteen (13) countries of South America, it does not share a Latin American heritage with countries such as Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela.
