Surfing in Nicaragua
COMING SOON!
Nicaragua is now ranked as one of thetop surf destinations in the world. This is because most of the beaches are still not yet crowded and there are year round waves. Nicaragua possesses a couple unique characteristics that make it an ever more interesting surf destination. In the south-central part of the country, Lake Nicaragua covers a surface of more than 8,000 square kilometers, creating a huge, flat area where wind can constantly blow. And almost year-round it does. As a consequence, the southern Pacific side of Nicaragua receives almost constant offshore winds, and unlike virtually all other Pacific destinations the wind does not change during the day and water is clean and good for surfing all day long.
This wind is known as the Papagayo Wind and it is praised by surfers who come from all over the world to experience the local waves. There are certain locations where the Papagayo is combined with a good wave, making several sites very interesting for surfers. Several beaches around San Juan del Sur have even achieved international fame for having these qualities!
In San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, the offshore Papagayo winds often make it possible to surf from sunrise to sunset. Make San Juan Del Sur your next surf destination! See below to book or customize your own surf package! We offer all-inclusive surf packages, surf lessons, and summer surf camps!
