El Faro / Lighthouse above Las Gata's - seeking recent info
My husband and I and 3 friends hiked to the lighthouse in March of this year. We are all in our 50's and 60's. We asked our friend/waiter Miguel at Gloria en el Mar and he arranged for a guide to take us. It was obvious that the trail had not been used in some time as the guide went in front with a machete to hack away foliage. It was rough going, we all got bit by fire ants along the way. We arrived at the lighthouse tired and sweaty. Seems like it took us over an hour to hike up. The lighthouse is not spectacular but it was interesting to see and the view was great. Going back down was a lot easier and when we arrived back at the beach we got into the water and the ant bites disappeared. We had a wonderful lunch waiting for us at Gloria en el Mar when we returned. We would not do it again but we are glad that we did it. It was worth doing once.
