Lake Atitlán
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Do check out Lake Atitlan if you have time though. Both places you mention are awesome but primarily tourists, the lake has a good mix (especially if you end up in San Juan, San Pedro or Santiago)
- Spending time around the volcanoes in Antigua and Lake Atitlan was a particular highlight.
- Kayaking on the lake at sunset was really nice
- I have a rough plan of flying into chetumal and starting with Bacalar, then going to Belize for Caye caulker and San Ignacio, then Flores, lanquin, Antigua, and lake Atitlan in Guatemala.
- he said the state of emergency from January is still in effect, but doesn't really impact the popular tourist places that we are going to (Antigua and Lake Atitlan).

Atitlan was freaking awesome but water taxis stop at 5 pm.
