We were now but waiting for notice of a vessel sailing from Progreso for Coatzacoalcos.
A seaport at the mouth of the Ro Coatzacoalcos; scrub on coastal dunes; marshes and low evergreen forest inland .
A ranch just south of Coatzacoalcos; scrub and low evergreen forest .
Through it runs the Coatzacoalcos River, northerly, to the gulf.
Immediately inland from Coatzacoalcos and along the lower stretches of the Ro Papaloapan are extensive marshes.
