About this audio guide
This guide to El Mirador, the lookout on Cozumel's wild east coast near Playa del Carmen, treats its rock arch as a construction job and asks who did the building. It reaches back to a time when the whole island sat under the sea, and to the ice ages that followed. Best heard standing on the rough grey rock by the arch, with the surf in earshot.
