The Land of Lakes, Volcanoes, Tropical Beaches, And Colonial Traditions
Venture through the largest country in Central America, also home to the largest freshwater lake in the region, the Lago de Nicaragua with the island of Ometepe, which was formed by the two volcanoes, Concepción (1610m) and Maderas (1394m), along with 300 smaller volcanic islands that were inhabited by Indian cultures in pre-Columbian times.
The Pacific side of Nicaragua is characterized by a chain of some still-active volcanoes that runs through the country from north to south. Both light and dark sand beaches align the shores of the Pacific. Especially popular are Nicaragua’s beaches among surfers with a seemingly endless supply of surf breaks.
Another highlight of Nicaragua that you will experience on this expedition is the small colonial town of Granada, at the foot of the volcano Mombacho (1345 m). The towns Cathedral is regarded as one of the most important colonial buildings in Central America.
