Nicaragua takes its name from Nicarao, chief of the indigenous tribe then living around present-day Lake Nicaragua. A friendly and peaceful country that at times, received an undue share of negative press, Nicaragua is really one of the safest surfing destinations to visit in Central America. With more than a decade of political stability, this democracy has moved steadily forward and is the fastest growing "still perfect" surf destination in the world.

The nickname "land of lakes and volcanoes" describes this beautiful and fascinating country well. Two great lakes, Xolotlán (Lake Managua) and Cocibolca (Lake Nicaragua) occupy roughly 10 percent of the countries surface area, and are the largest in Central America. Running nearly parallel to the pacific coast is a chain of 58 volcanoes, six of which are active.

The country also boasts the longest rivers in Central America, vast coastal lagoons, and hundreds of miles of sea coast. As the largest and lowest Central American country, Nicaragua is essentially an emerging "land bridge" between Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Centrally located between North and South America, Nicaragua has benefited from the astonishing blend of flora and fauna from the two continents.

Nicaragua's cultural wealth is without a doubt one of its major attributes. During your stay with Pure Vacations we will take some time to explore the richness of its culture, filled with beauty and tradition. Its beautiful colonial cities will transport you to a bygone era.
