Lake Atitlan is part of a large volcanic chain located in the department of Sololá. It shelters part of the biodiversity, important for Guatemala. To tell the truth, a region like this provides landscapes and ecosystems that are beneficial for nature and tourism in the country.

This body of water is located approximately 125 kilometers from the capital city. The area of the Atitlan Lake basin measures 580 square kilometers, while the lake itself measures 130 square kilometers in total. Its deepest part is approximately 325 meters, while the average depth is 220 meters. In fact, this makes it the deepest lake in Central America.

It is known that water escapes through the porous skirts on the south side of the volcanoes that surround it, Atitlán, Tolimán and San Pedro.

The 4 main tributaries of the lake are the Panajachel, Quiskab, San Buenaventura and Cascada rivers, all in the northern part of the lake. The surrounding area is home to varied fauna and some endangered species, such as the quetzal, national bird of Guatemala.
