San Pedro La Laguna Travel Guide

Trippin - a great hostel - cheap, nice people San Pedro is a great place - nice, friendly and open people. Good Food in most of the restaurants Buddha Bar - has good food and a good place to hang out

San Pedro is a real gem on Lake Attitlan... the usual 'trip' around Lake Attitlan often starts at a place like Panajachel and goes around the lake, stopping at San Marcos, San Pedro, Santiago and back.... divide your time so that you have enough for each... but especially for San Pedro that is not only a shade big in size but also very atmospheric... the Guatemalan markets are a treat to watch with their bright colours and local hustle and bustle...

This is by far the best town on Lago de Atitlan in Guatemala.  There is enough of a night life for those of you that like to dance and have a few drinks, but it is also very relaxed and has a great diversity of food.  A lot of ex-hippies live in San Pedro and have brought a variety of cuisine.  There is no bank in the town so you need to take a lake taxi across the lake to the bigger town to get cash.
