Nicaragua is a small but diverse country with vast mountainous north-central plains, eastern jungles, and numerous volcanoes. Although
Nicaragua is the fastest growing tourist destination in Central America, it is largely unexplored by foreign tourists. While most tourists flock to
Granada and the Pacific coastline many of Nicaragua’s most beautiful places remain hidden from the typical traveler.
Laguna de Apoyo, the “Crown Jewel of Nicaragua”, was once an unknown destination but is now one of the most popular hot spots in Nicaragua. Travelers who have never viewed the blue waters of the crater lake can’t possibly understand what they have missed. It’s because there is no other place like Laguna de Apoyo anywhere else in the world.
