Parque Punta Sur, Adolfo Lopez Mateos

Visited the Punta Sur park in August-06. Drove a rental car to the lighthouse parking lot. $10 pp entrance fee. At the lighthouse a truck drove us a few miles to the beach area. Our entrance fee entitled us to a pontoon boat ride around the estuary. We saw aligators, birds and iguanas. The entrance fee also entitled us to the use of the hammocks and lounge chairs on the beach. Snorkel equipment is also available for an additional fee. Hurricane damage has made much of the surrounding vegetation gray in color. It is estimated that it will take 10 years for the area to recover.
