Visiting the Most Beautiful Lake in Central America | Lake Atitlan Guatemala | Guatemala Travel Vlog

In this Guatemala travel vlog I will be visiting the most beautiful lake in Central America. Welcome to Lake Atitlan, Guatemala (Lago de Atitlan Guatemala)! In this Guatemala vlog, I will show you four different towns on this beautiful lake. On my first day, I explore the tranquil town of Santa Cruz (Santa Cruz La Laguna), where I meet some friendly locals and wander through the town’s green hills and colorful buildings. After exploring Santa Cruz, I take the boat, also called the lancha, to the biggest town on Lake Atitlan, Panajachel (Panajachel La Laguna). Panajachel Guatemala, or as the locals call it, Pana, is a bustling town filled with tons of markets, shops, restaurants, and nightlife.

On my second day on Lake Atitlan I explored the towns of San Marcos (San Marcos La Laguna) and San Juan (San Juan La Laguna). San Marcos is a beautiful small town known for its hippy atmosphere and chill vibes. San Marcos is home to tons of health focused stores with lots of organic, vegetarian, and vegan cafes and restaurants. San Marcos is also home to Cerro Tzankujil, which is a nature reserve great for a hike with beautiful views of the lake, and even a cliff jumping spot if you are in search of an adrenaline rush.

After visiting San Marcos, I took the boat to potentially my favorite town on the lake, San Juan. If you visit Lake Atitlan, I would strongly recommend making the trip to San Juan. San Juan is less visited by tourists and is a beautiful town with incredible mountain views and some of the most colorful streets and buildings I have ever seen. The streets are filled with bright colors and tons of art murals. Walking around the streets of San Juan will most definitely put a smile on your face.

I hope after watching this Guatemala travel video, you can understand why so many people believe that Lake Atitlan (Lago de Atitlan) is the most beautiful lake in Central America. It is a place I would highly recommend when visiting Guatemala!

BEST Things to do in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala!

This travel vlog is about a weekend trip we took from Antigua, Guatemala to Lake Atitlan - which people in Guatemala call the most beautiful lake in the world. While a part of our itinerary was affected by rain, this vlog shows you an effective way to see the best parts of Lake Atitlan within a weekend
We made our way to visit three of the most popular towns in Lake Atitlan - San Marcos, San Pedro and Panajachel.
We started off with cliff jumping in San Marcos and then made our way to San Pedro on a boat. We had our accommodation in San Pedro. We found some very delicious restaurants in this town.
The next day, we hiked the Indian Nose (or Rostro Maya) with a tour company that charged us $10. This hike started at 4am and the whole trip lasted 4 hours (the hike was only 40 minutes up). This was one of those hikes that we will remember for a lifetime because of how beautiful the sunrise was over Lake Atitlan. This is a must visit for anyone coming to Lake Atitlan.
Next we were about to paddleboard in San Pedro but it started raining heavily so we just decided to make our way to Panajachel to check out the local markets. The markets of Panajachel weren't as special as we were expecting it to be.

Guatemala's Must-Visit Destinations: A Journey to Lake Atitlán & Antigua | Travel Guide

Embark on a journey with me to two of Guatemala's must visit destinations —Lake Atitlán and Antigua. Both regions offer captivating landscapes and show a different side of Guatemala.
Lake Atitlán, known for its breathtaking blue-green waters, towering volcanos and the picturesque towns that surround it warrant an extended stay. There's no shortage of experiences in this remarkable area and exploring on the local ferries is idyllic and affordable. If you're looking to discover something special in Guatemala, Lake Atitlán is a destination not to be missed.

Next, we step into the charming world of Antigua, Guatemala. This UNESCO World Heritage site is famed for its well-preserved baroque architecture, cobblestone streets, and vibrant mix of local and global cultures. It stands as a must-visit location for anyone eager to explore the rich tapestry of Guatemala.

This video has been produced to be more than a travel guide or VLOG. It's a showcase of Guatemala's unique offerings, from spending time on a sustainable avocado farm near Antigua to fully embracing Lake Atitlán's serene way of life.

Whether you're a digital nomad seeking a fresh perspective, a laid-back traveler, or someone simply curious about what to do in Guatemala, I hope this exploration will capture your imagination. Join me in uncovering the hidden treasures of this Central American wonder, as we traverse off the beaten path for an authentic and engaging experience.

ABOUT US:

As the #retirementtravelers, we have always dreamed of traveling, but we never in a million years thought we would become #travelvloggers and start a YouTube channel. But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us.

In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years.

In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a suitcase and a small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next ten years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren.

We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! ???? ???? ????
