Museo Santa Bárbara

TIME : 2016/2/18 15:49:36

On an islet to the west of Flores, this little museum holds a grab bag of Maya artifacts from nearby archaeological sites, plus some old broadcasting equipment from Radio Petén (88.5 FM), which still broadcasts from an adjacent building. Phone ahead and they'll pick you up at the dock behind Hotel Santana (Q20 per person).

After browsing the museum, take a wander round the islet, watch birds poking round the twigs off the banks, then enjoy chilled coconuts at the cafe by the dock.
