Beautiful lake. You can rent an airbnb for the day or visit la pampa argentina restaurant
Lago Coatepeque is a large crater lake surrounded by wooded hills in western El Salvador. Nearby, El Congo is its gateway village. In the lake's southwest corner is Teopan Island, once a sacred site for the ancient Maya. Farther southwest, the Cerro Verde National Park is crossed by a network of trails. Its towering Santa Ana volcano and the conical Izalco volcano offer panoramic views over the lake. The lake is also famous for a natural phenomenon that occurs during July and August. Produced by microalgae, the lake turns a bright turquoise color. Many people come here to swim and can also rent out jet skis. Be very careful not to swim too far into the lake for it is known to have very strong currents.
