Spend Time Out-of-doors in Nicaragua
A tropical wonderland like Nicaragua is a memorable place to visit and tour. From the beaches and the ocean, to the bountiful land and tropical jungles, all the way to the peaks of the rugged volcanoes, the area is just packed with opportunities to get out and roam around. Regardless of your preference - be it hiking, swimming, boating, or camping - you can choose your spot and choose your activity here in some locations that to this day remain largely unexplored.
As would be expected, hiking and nature tours are a huge activity for visitors. Tropical forests, jungles, historic towns, and even the coastline are all available to appreciate. On the uncommon side, there are dry riverbeds to walk in and explore, barren land that used to be lush forests, and there's even a butterfly farm you can visit. Regardless of what you want to see, or the type of terrain you elect to hike, or the amount expanse of adventure you want to take on, Nicaragua is your destination.
Because the country sits on the Pacific Ocean, water sports and activities are big here too. Sunbathing, sailing, snorkeling and scuba diving are huge draws for beach lovers. The unblemished volcanic lakes hold crystal clear water that not only makes for unparalleled swimming but also includes the solitude and tranquility you may desire, too. And if you're a surfer, well... you've found Nirvana. Nicaragua is home to some of the best surfing spots on the Pacific and can accommodate surfers of all skill levels.
There's also camping and climbing. The many volcanoes in Nicaragua make for excellent mountain climbing experiences, with the added opportunity to camp there also. Set up camp at the base of a volcano the evening before, pack up in the morning, and head for the summit. If you're fortunate, you've chosen to climb a volcano that has a crater lake beckoning at the top, so your well- earned work can reward you with a soothing swim. Of course, if you don't want to go camping and climbing, you can always pitch a tent right on the beach, and wake up to the ocean waves and gentle breeze.
