Coatepeque is a splendid and tranquil crater
lake surrounded by private vacation homes. On a Saturday afternoon, we practically had the place to
ourselves. Next time I think we’ll just stop and have lunch at one of the
restaurants at the top, avoiding the bumpy dirt road our little car had to
traverse to get to the few restaurants at the base, (though it was worth the drive for our first visit!).
Coatepeque means “cerro de culebras” or
“snake hill” in Nahuatl.
We didn’t
see any snakes in case you’re wondering.

We sat as close to the lake as we
could.
The part on stilts moved
when we walked and swayed with the wind.
