Playa Guasacate and Popoyo

People used to go to Popoyo to surf, lounge in a hammock, eat, surf and repeat (with a few beers in between!) The sole focus for those visiting the area is the waves. Now there is much more to do with restaurants and bars opening monthly with a very communal surf vibe and increased entertainment value.  

With over 300 days of offshore winds, it’s hard to find a day where you can’t surf and are often too tired to do anything else.

Tide Pools

This Magical place is the perfect spot to end a walk along the beautiful shore of Guasacate. The tide pools are a great spot for families or a romantic getaway for couples. Plan to spend some time here to wander around looking at sea shells, marine wildlife, and a dip into the swimming pool size tide pool.

Surfing Boat Trips

One of the best ways to surf around the Popoyo area is by spending a 1/2 or full day on a boat and surf multiple breaks in a day.  Boats can take you to popular breaks like Playgrounds, Chacocente, Laces Left, Popoyo Reef, Santanas, Panga Drops, Colorados, Manzanillo and maybe some secret spots.

Learn to Surf  / Board Rentals

Nicaragua is known for warm water, offshore winds and the best surf in Central America. The surf is consistent for the Beginner to professional level surfers.

Natural Hot Springs, Las Salinas

The natural hot springs in Las Salinas in a rustic experience as you would expect here in Nicaragua. There are 3 pools. The firs pool is the hottest pool where the hot sulfurous spring bubble up through the muddy bottom. It feeds the other 2 pools that are recommended to use. The first pool is not recommended due to the extreme heat. The other 2 pools are designed like swimming pools and have the perfect temperature to relax in. While relaxing, don’t be surprised if you see the locals doing their laundry and the wash stations. They don’t have washing machines or hot water at their house like most people.

Horseback Riding

An authentic Nicaraguan gaucho will guide you and your entire family on a unique tour exploring the beautiful beaches and hills of the Popoyo area. Let your horse gallop while your hair flies in the wind on the sand beaches then wander up trails looking for monkeys in the trees.

Chacocente Natural Reserve

Popoyo is located near one of the largest Wildlife Refuge and Sea Turtle Reserves in Nicaragua. Chacocente is one of the nine most important beaches in the world where so-called “arribadas” take place. In these events between July and December, the Olive Ridley turtle arrives in huge quantities up to 5,000 turtles in one night at the beach to lay their eggs.
