Enjoy Outdoor Recreation & Water Sport in Nicaragua
A tropical wonderland like Nicaragua is a fantastic place to vacation and tour. From the beaches and the ocean, to the bountiful land and tropical jungles, all the way to the summits of the rugged volcanoes, the area is just filled with opportunities to get out and explore. Regardless of your preference - be it hiking, swimming, boating, or camping - you can choose your spot and choose your endeavor here in some locations that to this day remain largely uncharted.
As would be expected, hiking and nature tours are a huge attraction 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 flutter around in. Regardless of what you like to see, or the type of terrain you prefer to hike, or the amount expanse of adventure you want to undertake, Nicaragua is your destination.
Because the country sits on the Pacific Ocean, water sports and activities are very popular here also. Sunbathing, sailing, snorkeling and scuba diving are huge magnets for beach lovers. The pristine volcanic lakes hold crystal clear water that not only makes for unparalleled swimming but also includes the seclusion and tranquility you may want, also. 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 abilities.
There's also camping and climbing. The many volcanoes in Nicaragua make for outstanding mountain climbing experiences, with the added bonus to camp there as well. Set up camp at the base of a volcano the evening before, pack up in the morning, and head for the top. 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 rewarding 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 cool breeze.
