Nicaragua Descanso

What to do and what to see on the island!!!

How to relax...

  • Relaxing is possible under the rancho of the terrace or near the swimming pool, with a fantastic view on the lake and the volcano Mombacho
  • Due to the tropical climate, the wildlife and flora are very luxuriant with many birds and plants.

Activities...

  • Two kayaks are at your disposal to discover the islands.
  • It's also possible to swim from one island to another, in the fresh 30 degrees water of the lake

Trips on the lake...

The 15 minutes trip between Puerto-Asese and El Roble, is a great moment. But we can also recommend other ideas of trips you may do on the lake to discover the islands.
  • Two one-hour trips, guided by Francisco, born in the islands, will allow you to discover about 50 small islands, and the wildlife of the lake; the light in the morning is superb!

  • You can also fish during two hours with Francisco and you may have the chance to catch a Guapote, the endemic fish of the lake or a tilapia, its predator… both are excellent as a meal...

  • An afternoon on a white-sand beach, near the Mombacho. Located about 40 minutes away from the island El Roble, in the direction of Zapatera, this small beach offers a fantastic view of the lake. Also, you will find the water warmer there…

Excursions in Granada and the surroundings...

  • The town center of Granada, with its central park, the market, the colonial-style buildings...

  • The ascent of the volcan Mombacho, with at the top the tour of the natural park and a very special view of the islands

  • For the most courageous, the canopy tour will give you the chance to become an adventurer by travelling from tree to tree…

  • The Apoyo lagoon, a 250 meters deep volcanic crater full of intense blue water

  • Lhe town of Masaya less than 30km away from Granada, with its art-craft, its markets and its active volcano...
