The most beautiful lake

Last weekend, everyone in our group went to Lake Atitlan for a couple days. I had heard that it was an amazing place, and I confirmed this for myself while I was there. We went on a tour of 3 of the 12 (or more) towns surrounding the lake and also were able to spend a little time in the town we stayed in, Panajachel. The pictures speak for themselves.

This is one of the 3 volcanoes surrounding the lake
The lake is the result of a large crater between the volcanoes. The land steeply rises from the water on all sides.


Sunday morning I woke up around 6 am and swam in the lake; the waters were so calm and fresh. This experience has been my favorite one so far! Would anyone like to return to Lake Atitlan with me in the future?
