San Juan del Sur is a small and very nice village placed inside the bay with the same name that overlooks the pacific ocean 60 kms west of Granada and 24 Kms from Costa Rica's frontier.
Enclosed by prehistoric volcanic hills, characterized by a very broad beach of white sand, that is 3 Kms long, and with very good climate for the whole part of the year it permits to practice surf, underwater fishing, deep sea fishing and bathing.
It is possible to eat fish, crustaceans and other tasty specialities in characteristic and cheap restaurants hearing the sweet sound of the sea and to spend evenings in the beautiful and small snack bar that overlooks directly the beach.
Currency
Nicaragua has its own currency: the cordoba. The US dollar is also virtually everywhere accepted.
