Destinations >> San Juan del Norte

At the mouth of the San Juan River in the Caribbean, is San Juan del Norte (formerly Greytown). This port town was visited frequently by California gold prospectors and the buildings of that era can still be seen.

It is one of the oldest towns of Nicaragua, and of great historical importance as a required point of passage to access the San Juan River. Plan an excursion to the beautiful Blue Lagoon, a lovely place where you can enjoy a pleasant dip in warm and tranquil waters amidst lush natural surroundings.
