Is Nicaragua on your travel radar?
Nicaragua, the largest country in Central America, might not be on your radar, but with a dramatic landscape of smoky volcanoes, steamy rainforests and postcard-perfect sandy beaches, it probably should be. Spanish conquistadors and buccaneers came to the land long ago and today travelers are reawakening to how extraordinary this country is. One day you could be hitting the Pacific surf, the next ambling through Spanish colonial towns. If you nab yourself one of the oceanfront Nicaragua vacation rentals, you could be swinging on a hammock over the turquoise waters, or diving below to find a colorful world of coral reefs and exotic fish.
Step back in time in Nicaragua
You don't need to look hard to discover the country's fascinating past. If you've scored a Nicaragua vacation rental in sunny Granada, you'll find an air of sophistication, along with beautifully preserved Spanish colonial architecture, sunny plazas and a soaring yolk-colored cathedral. Down-at-heel Leon might feel a little grittier, but the crumbling facades of 18th-century homes make it just as charming, plus there's a vibrancy and authenticity here not found anywhere else. If you're heading north, be sure not to miss the cliff carvings in the Tisey Estanzuela Natural Reserve, the life's work of local Alberto Gutierrez Jiron.
Nicaragua might be laid back, but its activities aren't
This friendly country might feel laid-back, but if you've got an adrenaline itch that needs scratching, it's got you covered. This is a place to start ticking off those thrill-seeking experiences on your bucket list. From your Nicaragua vacation rental, you can surf down lava-strewn volcanoes, canyon down rocky tumbling cascades, or gallop through tropical forests. Not enough? How about diving to explore sunken shipwrecks, kayaking across mangroves passing lurking alligators, or reeling in powerful sailfish from charter fishing boats? If that doesn't get your heart pumping, we don't know what will.
Turtles, jaguars and sharks in Nicaragua
One of Nicaragua's biggest draws is the countless wildlife spotting opportunities. It's best known for the annual nesting of turtles, who haul themselves across the sand to lay their eggs. If you stay in a Nicaragua vacation rental at the right time, you shouldn't miss catching a glimpse. Sharks may have a fearsome reputation, but most are harmless. If you dive down into Lake Nicaragua, few things are as thrilling as watching the shadow of a freshwater bull shark darting past. The tropical forests are home to a whole new set of critters, including stealthy jaguars and the closely related pumas.
