About 40 min, 38 peso toll road.
There is a National Park here called Sumadero canyon and you can take a speed boat down the canyon. It is really worth the 150pesos for the couple hours. It is something different to do, really pretty (overlook the ubiquitous plastic bottles) and relaxing (dido).
After searching through town, because the dock signs point you in the wrong direction for traffic, we finally got to the boats. We missed the boats and had to wait, missed the boat fill up again during lunch. After waiting again we went with a Mexican couple to the other boat dock out on the highway and paid a little more to “fill” the boat at 5pm.
The next morning we took off to Tuxtla Gutierez and took the national Park road look out over the canyon. Head towards Sumadero and keep your boat receipt or keep your bracelet from the road if you go there first. They give you a discount for both, about 22 pesos I think. We didn’t think to get a receipt.
Chiapa De Corzo to Tehuenatepec
229 miles. Long day, had to stop to fix the tire/muffler melting problem.
This road was hilly at the beginning but then straight, windy and hot. This town was just a good stopping point. Smaller than juchitan, sleepy in the morning. no breakfast except taco stands, but there is juice!
