Beach at Las Cristalinas: Relax at this scenic spot on Lake Atitlan’s shores.
Tony at Coco Bongo: Our go-to recommendation for a place to stay in San Pedro and for boat charters. Tony's local expertise makes planning easy! We also loved the fresh cooked food at his waterside restaurant. Parking available at his location, or park up further in town and ride a tuk-tuk down to the pier.
Water Taxi Option: A budget-friendly public water taxi alternative for smaller groups (ideal for 2 people).
Communication Tip: Make sure to have WhatsApp to contact local vendors and boat operators.
