Ometepe Island & San Juan del Sur

Excellent watersports and beautiful nature


The Ometepe Island is one of the most impressive sights in Nicaragua and a not-to-be-missed place to visit. An island emerging from the lake made up of two volcanoes, the Concepcion and Maderas. Adventurers can climb the Maderas volcano topped with cloud forest, a lagoon and many birds and animals. There are beautiful rivers and waterfalls to swim in and a visit to a coffee or banana plantation is worth your time. Ometepe is somewhat isolated from the rest of Nicaragua and therefore maintains its special mystery and charm. Lake Nicaragua surrounding it makes for an excellent water sports destination. Surfers and beach lovers should also take some days to visit San Juan del Sur on Nicaragua's Pacific coast.
