hello,

Travelers are advised to see Atitlan now rather than later. Documented studies give the national and local governments until 2020 to stop the pollution or the damage will be irreversible. Swimming is only advisable on the infrequent days s when the lake is is clear.People are still swimming, it is a fact. Timbo that was 4 years ago, things have changed but I have never have put a foot into the lake. I had a local ask if I swam and responded with no, he then proceeded to tell me he does frequently and I should. I then asked him if he ever had rashes after swimming,

Hi,

The danger of swimming in a lake is to have a wound. If this is not the case, the risk is much lower.
