Destinations >> Corn Island

Corn Island is some 70 kilometers (44 miles) from the coast and can be reached by air or by boat.

On these idyllic Caribbean islands, you can enjoy turquoise waters, beaches of white sand, beautiful coconut palms, exquisite fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and the rhythm of the Nicaraguan Caribbean region.

From Corn Island you may also visit Little Corn Island and enjoy its deserted beaches, hike to the interior of the island and swim in its beautiful multi-toned waters.

Corn Island and other sites on the Atlantic Coast offer warm water diving in transparent waters with an abundance of fauna and coral formations. Among the most fascinating species that can be observed in the Caribbean is the manatee.

In the case of scuba diving accidents (decompression sickness), patients can be transferred to Puerto Cabezas where there is a hyperbaric chamber.
