Lago Atitlan



Sitting at 1,560 meters, the lake was originally formed by a volcanic eruption thousands of years ago. From the shores of this enchanting lake three unactive volcanos are still visible.

The weather this time of year is comparable to that of early summer in the south. Sunny mornings moderated by afternoon showers keep temperatures fresh and cool. As a result we have planned activities around the weather, kayacking or hiking in the mornings and simply sipping coffee (from the region!) and reading in the afternoon to a tune of rain on tin roofs. The picture at the top is taken from our balcony (15 quetzales per person a night = $2).
