Definitely one of the better-known beaches in Nicaragua and a big hit with tourists and locals alike, San Juan Del Sur is found over on the Pacific Coast of the country and provides a lively atmosphere and superb surfing conditions. The waves here can reach some very impressive heights that will definitely appeal to surfers, but simpler activities like swimming, sunbathing, and beach games can all be enjoyed on this Nicaraguan beach as well.

San Juan Del Sur also hosts various festivities and special events at certain times of year and can be a super spot to soak up some of the local culture.
