Las Isletas

Head to the 85°F waters of what’s considered the hemisphere’s grandest rain-formed lake; Lake Nicaragua, a kayaking paradise that is the second-biggest lake in Latin America. It is known locally as Cocibolca, which means “sweet sea.” Kayak around the Las Isletas Archipelago, consisting of 365 little volcanic islands, some of which have homes built on them!

As you glide into the depths of the isletas look for mango trees, a popular eating fish called guapote and the only freshwater sharks in the world. Enjoy the contrast of enjoying the incredibly wild, untouched ecology around you with the athleticism, alertness and consciousness required to successfully stay on the water and not in it!
