Description of El Remate

El Remate is a small tourist town situated on the shores of Lake Petén Itzá in Peten Province in Guatemala. It is famous for small eco- friendly hotels designated for tourists who like seclusion and pristine untouched nature. So don't expect sophisticated accommodation in El Remate, but you can expect majestic view of the lake and jungles. Its population is mostly peasant and livestock and is approximately 107 inhabitants. El Remate is located at 810 meters of altitude. It is located on the edge of a ravine that frames the stream of the same name. This site is an important part of the history of Colima, since in this area was established in 1906 the first electricity generating plant, which supplied light to the Colima society until 1967.
