PUNTA MIRAMAR AND LEÓN, THE BEST DESTINATIONS OF NICARAGUA

January 6, 2023

Did you know that in addition to offering one of the best surf trips for those who like to face varied challenges and a little crowd, Nicaragua also has tourist attractions to make your holidays unforgettable? It has several tours and activities to surprise you with the country.

Here are some tips you will not miss when setting up your travel itinerary:

Surf

To practice surfing, one of the most strategic places to get close to the best surf spots is the beach of Miramar. There you can stay at Miramar Surf Camp. The hotel sits on top of a cliff and faces the main beach break in the area, Punta Miramar. In addition, the accommodations boast sea views with a breathtaking sunset.

Walking 2 minutes south of the surf camp you have access to the beach break Shacks for an amazing tubular session. If you have a little more experience, you can face Puerto Sandino, which is 500 meters from the hotel. The wave can reach 200 meters in length, is quite maneuverable and yields radical tubes. In the region, you still find the peaks The Pipes, Shacks, Salinas Grandes, La Derechita and El Transito.

Tours in Léon:

In addition to surfing, you can take advantage of your trip to discover the historic center of Léon, one of the most important cities in the country. There you can visit the ruins of the first Spanish Colonial cities of the continent. It has been preserved due to the volcanic activity of the place, maintaining its true structure.

The city of León also has a historic center with colonial buildings, museums, art galleries, churches and cathedrals for cultural tourism and activities for the whole family. Still in Léon, you can enjoy the bars and nightlife to dance to a salsa and drink lots of drinks.

Volcanic tourism is also widely explored in the region. One of the most fun volcanoes in León is the young, still active Cerro Negro. You can do a climb to have an incredible view. One of the typical activities of the place is the volcano boarding, in which you descend the slopes of the volcano.
