Nicaragua

If you’re looking for an unforgettable vacation with something for everyone then check out the exhilarating experiences in Nicaragua. This Central American country features coastlines on the North Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. The white sandy beaches, tropical forests and thriving cultural aspect allows for an experience you won’t forget.

Granada

One of the first large Spanish settlements established in the country, Granada features many buildings and churches in the old Spanish colonial style. Each is beautifully preserved offering plenty of tourist scenery, or you can enjoy hiking up the volcano, kayaking in the nearby islets, or visiting the market.

San Juan del Sur

If you’re looking for beautiful beaches and fun in the sun, check out this Nicaraguan vacation spot. The beaches offer warm water, surfing lessons, and lots of cheap bars. Plus it also houses one of the largest statues of Jesus in the entire world.

León

For a once in a lifetime opportunity, try a more active vacation destination and try volcano boarding at Cerro Negro. Similar to sledding, you hike up the side of the volcano to the top, and slide down on a piece of wood. This extremely popular activity typically takes around 1 hour to hike to the top of the mountain, and tours leave from León both in the morning and afternoon.

Corn Islands

If you want to soak up the sun or relax with a good book, then this is the spot for you. Corn Islands are located just off the Caribbean coast of Nicaragua and featuring a spectacular area for snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing, or just chilling on the beach.
