Now, where to travel in Nicaragua? I have often been asked, where my favourite place to travel in Central America is and after having given it a lot of thought, I concluded it is Nicaragua. Now of course, currently in 2018, Nicaragua is going through some tough times, but tourism will return to Nicaragua and the doors will open to travel Nicaragua once again and when you do plan to visit Nicaragua, you can use this top 5 places to travel in Nicaragua video to outline my personal favourite places, cities and towns in Nicaragua.
Here we go through my favourite 5 places you should visit when travelling Nicaragua starting at #5 The Corn Islands. Off the coast of Nicaragua, Big and Little Corn Island are two paradisical chunks of sand completely surrounded by gorgeous water. Sit back and relax!
My 4th favourite place in Nicaragua is the fun beach party town of San Juan del Sur. A lot of people love San Juan as it is called in Nicaragua, and as much as I did enjoy it, I was not in Nicaragua to just party so I found San Juan del Sur fun, but there were other better places.
San Juan del Sur in Nicaragua:
The biggest surprise whilst travelling through Nicaragua was my third favourite place, Leon in the north of Nicaragua. A place I thought only existed on the tourist trail for Volcano Boarding, Leon is actually a very cool, and authentic city!
Volcano Boarding in Leon, Nicaragua:
2nd best place in Nicaragua is Granada and Laguna de Apoyo. The town of Granada is gorgeous and colonial and right beside it is the volcano crater lake of Laguna de Apoyo, a pairing that is an absolute must visit when in Nicaragua.
Laguna de Apoyo, Nicaragua:
The BEST Places in NIcaragua whilst travelling through, I found was ... ISLA OMETEPE. The island of Ometepe is a volcano island located in the enormous lake which covers a large area of Nicaragua and it is an unusual lost world that I simply loved. The video below shows us scootering around the island, one of the best days of my life.

POPOYO Our Favorite Beach in Nicaragua! TOP 5 | Nicaragua 2021
There are so many reasons why Popoyo is our favorite beach in Nicaragua and in this Nicaragua travel vlog we share our Top 5! Set along the Emerald Coast of Nicaragua near Tola, Rivas, Popoyo is one of the best Nicaragua Beaches for surfing and it is much quieter than the beaches surrounding San Juan Del Sur. If swimming is more your thing, then you have plenty of options around Playa Guasacate, including a tidal pool and river. Nicaragua sunsets from Playa Popoyo need to be seen to be believed. We also share where you can get the best curry in Nicaragua and other reasons why Popoyo is one of the best places to visit in Nicaragua!

Nicaragua Travel Guide | Itinerary, Mistakes & Tips
#Nicaragua #TravelGuide #NicaraguaTravel
After 2 months travelling around Nicaragua and visiting most of the well-known places, I thought it would be useful to produce a travel guide of sorts for Nicaragua.
Places visited: San Juan Del Sur, Popoyo, Playa Colorados, Ometepe, Granada, Managua, Corn Islands and Leon.
If I had to choose two places to visit in Nicaragua they would be Granada and Corn Islands (followed closely by Popoyo and Ometepe). Granada is a lovely town but the real jewel is visiting Laguna de Apoyo and Masaya Volcano which is one hell of a day. Corn Islands is, well, a Caribbean paradise and a place to really relax amongst beautiful surroundings.
If I had to skip two places they would have to be San Juan Del Sur and Leon, although both places are still good to visit if you have the time! The reason for skipping these two are that San Juan Del Sur needs the tourists for attractions like Sunday Funday to work - obviously at the moment there are a limited amount of tourists. Leon is nice but the main tourist attraction is the cathedral which, whilst incredible and the roof makes for incredible pictures, it's a bit out of the way and doesn't offer a whole lot else.
Nicaragua is incredibly diverse which makes it great for travelling - it's also much cheaper than Costa Rica. To give you an idea we spent less than a third on a monthly basis compared to our expenses in Costa Rica.
There are a few things that I think all travellers should be aware of:
1. Internet speeds are on the whole terrible. If you buy a local sim it is far more stable but generally speaking, the wifi isn't reliable enough to work off. As such, if you're a digital nomad or looking to work remotely in Nicaragua I think that you'll struggle....or at least I did.
2. Taxis are really affordable both in cities and between towns. However, for some reason even if you have a map with you they seemingly refuse to use it (even if they don't know where you are staying). This was perplexing and frustrating. Also, always clarify pricing. We got stung a few times because we didn't fully clarify prices or the taxi waited for us when we hadn't asked them to.
3. We had some issues crossing the Nicaraguan border back to Costa Rica because the stamp was barely readable from he Nicaragua border. This is highly unlikely to happen to anyone else, but for us it did mean that the bus left without us at Peñas Blancas.
4. I can't really comment on the political situation in Nicaragua but it is something that people ask about. Do your own research here as I had to previously change travel plans due to unrest.

7 Best Traveling Destinations in Nicaragua
No longer visited only by in-the-know backpackers, surfers and adventure travelers, Nicaragua is now a top destination for families and retirees too. It’s shed the image of a rough and troubled past, to become the second safest country in Central America (stated by the United Nations), and arguably one of the best bets amongst other inexpensive tropical havens. We’ll go through our 7 best destinations in Nicaragua of the moment below.
Nicaragua is a country of natural beauty and exceptionally warm people to match it’s warm climate. Despite getting more and more international attention, Nica is still managing to avoid hordes of tourists, instead attracting a different type of traveler. One that enjoys wandering off the beaten path, and connecting with nature and locals alike. And opportunities and deals abound in both real estate and business. It’s tough to pick the best destinations in Nicaragua, as they are plentiful.

The Best of the Nicaraguan Cities and the Coast
For more stories, tips and information about our Life Redesign or Travel Inspiration you can find them at:
Our Itinerary: Nicaraguan cities and the Pacific coast
Our trip started in Granada, remembering our time when we visited last year, walking the colonial streets, drinking cold beers at the Calzada, taking Spanish classes and staying with a family, and wandering through the vibrant food and merchandise market. In Granada, we stayed at the lovely Casa Silas B&B – a two room, colonial house equipped with dip pool and the best breakfast frittata included in your nights stay. Our next stop was León We took a local bus there our first trip seeing this city, the second largest of the Nicaraguan cities, (Managua the largest ) León is much rawer than Granada, rather than being entirely filled with colonial buildings, it exudes a colonial and industrial feel. Most of our exploring of the city was wandering around the whitewashed cathedrals, watching several holiday parades and Catholic festivities, and discovering that León, hands down has the best restaurants of all the Nicaraguan Cities.
Las Peñitas
A short 20minute bus trip took us to the coastal town of Las Peñitas. An area that has an excellent reputation for surfing sunbathing and relaxing. It certainly delivers on all of this. Despite its well-known reputation, Las Peñitas is surprisingly underdeveloped with some comfortable spots for food, drink, and lodging but still maintains a touristy yet local approach. Best time to visit is Sundays; it's teeming with families and León tourists ready to surf and enjoy the day. We stayed on the beach at the simple, and comfortable Simple Beach House.
Salinas Grandes
Further south past Las Peñitas is Salinas Grandes, or “Big Salt.” This area is an entirely different vibe. Rugged roads get you into the Salt Flats – where salt processing plants harvest huge mounds of salt. About 20minutes later by 4x4 (ideally as in rainy season the roads can be washed out) you reach the beach area of Salinas and view some of the most secluded, quiet beach areas we have ever seen. There are Incredible surf waves right at your doorstep and miles of beach where virtually no one is around. We kicked back at this stunning and affordable ocean front villa (owned by a friend and marketing client of mine ) for a few nights. We definitely need to get back there again very soon! We missed out on visiting Ometepe Island this time around, although we have lots of great tips after spending 2 months living there last year. You can find our posts on Ometepe and Nicaragua here.
