I didn't want to spend too much time in Guatemala because I had visited the main attractions previously. However, I met two other riders who let me tag along and I was tired of riding alone.

They were doing the usual stop and go routine but I convinced them to take a detour for some r&r and go to Monterrico which is famous for its beaches.

I didn't notice there was a river crossing, however....

We saw some beautiful beaches as well as some beach beauties.
