This weekend we visited Lake Coatepeque. A 120 metre deep and 6km wide volcanic crater lake. Located on the Eastern slope of Volcano Santa Ana, which last erupted 2 years ago. It's pretty exclusive as most of the shoreline is taken up with private homes belonging to wealthy Salvadorians. A trip around one side of the Lake on a jetski revealed some pretty impresive and large properties including one with a helicopter parked in the garden. Luckily,Mirna, my teaching assistant has a place there so we got to visit this Sunday. Even nicer is the fact that they have said we are welcome to go and stay anytime, so people planning on a visit can look forward to a stay at the lake. It's v. nice, as hopefully these photos will show.
The view from the road approaching the lake.
Simone and I in the classic "couple by a lake photo".
Down at water level.
The water was amazingly clean and nice and warm for swimming.
A nice view from the garden.
I feel as if the theme tune to Jaws should accompany this picture.
There was a selection of "boys toys" to keep me entertained.
Also a trampoline. No hilarious you've been framed type incidents to report though.
Big thank you to Mirna and Martin furthest right for their generosity and hospitality.
