Sailing Adventures
Explore the local coastline of San Juan del Sur. We can help you to arrange two types of trips; a full day sail (including beachcombing, snacks and beverages and a gourmet barbecue lunch), and a breathtaking sunset cruise. We don’t mind saying that both are spectacular; you’ll be treated to delicious snacks and drinks for the duration of your sail.
Sea Kayaks
Enjoy a peaceful morning or afternoon ride cruising along the beautiful bay of San Juan del Sur in one Kayak. Life vests, paddles, helmets and operation instructions are included. Hourly, daily and weekly rentals are available; adult and child size kayaks are available, too.
Panga Tours
"Panga" is the local term for an outboard motor fishing boat. These types of boats are available for hire to explore the phenomenal coastline and pristine beaches, or for a day of fishing.
San Juan del Sur is a fishing village, perhaps most famous for the local favorite pargo (red snapper). Rooster fish, tuna, and the ever-elusive red snapper are also among the anticipated catch of the day…you can bring one back turn it into your dinner!
We will be glad to make a reservation for your maritime excursion – just let us know when you would like to book your boat trip!
Surf’s up!
Nicaragua is quickly becoming known as a surfer’s paradise – here in Central America and throughout the world. With steady winds year-round and its remote beaches, Nicaragua is the new up and coming surf destination. Whether you are a beginner or a shredder, we know the guides who know the waves. Rental gear is also available.
Sea Turtles
Local wildlife refuge, Playa La Flor, is one of the world’s most important nesting sites for the olive ridley sea turtle, and about a 40 minutes’ drive to the south. From July to December, up to 8,000 female sea turtles crawl ashore at La Flor and lay their eggs in the amazing phenomenon known as the arribada ("the arrival"). It is one of just a handful of beaches in the world that witness such a spectacle. Do not miss it!!
La Flor National Park
La Flor National Park is an 800 hectare tropical dry forest and wildlife reserve, approximately 60 minutes south of town. It is one of the most important nesting sites for sea turtles in all of the Americas. The park also conserves valuable mangroves and a small estuary. The beach is a precious 800 meter light tan-colored sand cove touched by green-blue waters.
Massive arrivals of turtles can be observed in the nearby La Flor National Park. Between July and January approximately 30,000 Olive Ridley sea turtles arrive at the park’s beach. The Leatherback sea turtles also arrive at La Flor, but with less frequency. It is an unforgettable privilege to see these 600 pound sea giants.
Female sea turtles dig holes with their rear flippers and patiently lay up to 120 eggs, covering them with sand and then calmly returning to the ocean. For approximately 45 days, the eggs incubate in the sand until the little turtles hatch all at once and make an instinctive run to the sea, while birds, crabs and fish prey on
them. The La Flor Wildlife Refuge has a year round nest patrolling system, thus assuring that humans don’t become the main predators.
