AttractionsEverything in this area revolves around its biggest attraction, Lago Izabal. Most hotels and tour agencies in town offer boat tours of the lake. Almost all of these make a stop at Castillo de San Felipe, and many also head to Finca El Paraíso . Some tours head down the Río Dulce to Livingston, passing through El Golfete and Cueva de la Vaca, often making a side trip to Biotopo Chocón Machacas. For more details on these destinations and attractions, see the Livingston section earlier in this chapter. Your best bet for lining up a tour is to contact the folks at Tijax Express (tel. 502/7930-5197), which has an office just off the main street in Fronteras. Since Río Dulce is such a popular destination with cruising yachts, there are almost always a couple of sailboats working the charter business. Ask your hotel or around the dock at Bruno's or the Restaurante Río Bravo. El Estor -- El Estor is a beautiful community on the north shore of Lago Izabal, with forested mountains that appear to cascade into the lake. There are a couple of natural attractions of note, and many of the boat tours from Río Dulce stop here.
