The Lago de Atitlán, or Lake Atitlan, impresses with its picturesque beauty;
He is considered one of the most beautiful lakes in the world.
It can get crowded on the weekends. Then people from Guatemala City and Antigua populate the waters, which are up to 340 meters deep. Many own a house or apartment here.
In order to protect the diverse flora and fauna around Lake Atitlán, the region around the lake was declared a nature park in 1955.
A visit is definitely worth the lake.

Lago de Atitlán is the second largest lake in Guatemala, located in the department of Sololá and is known for its fauna and flora.
The lake is located at 1560 meters altitude, has an area of 130 km ² and is from east to west about 18 km long. The water temperature varies depending on the season between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius.
Surrounded by the three volcanoes Tolimán, Atitlán and San Pedro, it offers fantastic views and views from every perspective.
Around the lake are smaller settlements whose inhabitants are mostly indigenous (Maya), in the north Cakchiquel (Sololá) and in the south Tzutuhil (main towns Santiago Atitlán and San Pedro la Laguna) are.
The most important city on the Lago de Atitlán is Panajachel.
The Lago de Atitlán is the livelihood of many inhabitants of the surrounding villages, because it attracts many tourists because of its beauty and also ensures a freshwater reservoir both continuous harvests and Fischerrei allows.
