OUR GUIDE TO the weather in the Lake Atitlan and villages
The shores of Lake Atitlan are dotted with traditional Mayan villages and fringed by tiny fields where smallholders cultivate kitchen garden crops. Beyond are fuming volcanoes which cast ever-changing shadows over the water. Lakeside settlements are enlivened with textile markets, each with its own costume and character: Sololá and Santiago de Atitlán are among the largest and most vibrant.
