10 Top reasons to travel to Nicaragua

Nature on a Grand Scale

Nature lovers make themselves at home in the cloud forests of Mombacho to Matagalpa, in the tropical forests of the Rio San Juan rain forests. With 78 nature reserves---uncrowded and pristine---Nicaragua’s great outdoors caters to nature-lovers with 698 recorded species of birds, annual sea turtle nesting, 800 species of orchids, over 1,000 butterfly species, five of the world’s sea turtle species, and of course monkeys galore.
Adventures Abound

Nicaragua’s the place to: climb a volcano--- on Ometepe Island and Volcan Cosiguina in Chinandega Province, or the granddaddy of all Volcan San Cristobal; swing out over a crater lake on a zip line on Mombacho; mountain bike the Pueblos Blancos circuit; kayak Laguna de Apoyo and the Reserva Natural Isla Juan Venado; stand up paddle around the isletas Granada, scuba dive the Corn Islands; canoe the Rio San Juan.
Surf’s Up

And surfers head for San Juan del Sur, whose holy grail of wave riding is Popoyo. Nicaragua has great waves year round, although primetime is March to November. Then try a new take on the sport: Surfing down the Cerro Negro Volcano at 35 mph (56 kmph) on a wooden board.
Dine Around

Nicaraguans are “sons of corn,” a culinary inheritance from indigenous tribes that lived in the area. Traditional dishes such as nacatamal and indio viejo are corn-based, as are snacks and sweets such as atolillo and perereque. Of course, fresh fish, succulent steaks and tropical fruits galore go into the finest of Nicaraguan dishes. And as the farm-to-table movement has taken root, everyone’s talking about the refined spins that local chefs are taking on traditional dishes.
Think Special Interest

Specialty travel is one of our specialties. Careli’s Romance and Honeymoon getaways are tailored to adventure and discovery, catered affairs starring enchanting lodgings. Creating unforgettable memories is our goal in creating Family vacations full of top experiences in activities, learning and fun for each and every member. We custom design itineraries for birders, for foodies, for garden clubs, for travelers into wellness and yoga holidays, for trekkers and volcano climbers, and volunteers.
Step Back in Time

Discover pre-history among the petroglyphs, an pre-Hispanic cultures on Ometepe Island; savor a rich Colonial treasury in dazzling churches and quiet convents, historic mansions from Granada to Leon, from Pueblos Blancos to El Viejo; hear the stories and the music that tell us of the Afro-Caribbean traditions of today’s citizens living on the Corn Islands, on the Pearl Islands
Shop ‘Till You Drop

Nicaragua is handicraft heaven: ceramics, leatherwork, textile arts, wood work, embroidery, cotton hammocks. Most special are the primitive paintings and balsa wood carvings from Solentiname Islands, and the grandest emporium showcasing work from all of the country is the Masaya Market. And of course signature buys are Nicaragua’s special coffee and cigars, as well the award-winning Flor de Cano rum.
Stay in an Eco -Lodge

The inn’s the thing for travelers who like colonial quarters in quaint towns, romantic getaways on isolated beaches, or eco-lodges where the wild things are. And our small inns are stylish, sustainable and comfortable.
Meet the Nicas

You’re going to meet the Nicaraguans on the beach in San Juan del Sur, in the cafes of Granada, at the “Festival of Traditions” in Masaya or the Fiestas Patronales special to each town and village. On Ometepe Island, farm-stays are a way to meet a whole family, while signing on to a volunteer project is personally satisfying, beneficial to the people, and a good way to make new friends.
Life’s a Beach

Nicaragua has miles of them along her 200 miles of Pacific coast and 300 miles on the Atlantic, beaches that run wild and free, other broad, white and palm-fringed, most never crowded. And there are even delightful sandy coves along the shores of Lake Nicaragua, the largest inland lake in the Americas. And our sands come in all colors, from white as snow to fashionable lava-black.
