Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande

Fodor's Review:

The malecón ends at the Museo Arqueológico de la Costa Grande, a gray stone building identified with a wooden shingle. A permanent display of pre-Hispanic murals, maps, and archaeological pieces trace the history of the so-called Costa Grande (Grand Coast) through the colonial era. It's open Monday-Saturday 10-6; admission is $1. Beyond the museum, a footpath cut into the rocks leads to Playa la Madera.
