San Juan Del Sur Beach
Our famous home beach with the iconic statue on the hill like a mini Rio De Janiero.
The mile beach is long, wide and flat. In town there are tons of bars and restaurants right on the sand. The seafood is fresh and the drinks are cold. With more than a dozen beachside options you’ll never be short a seat.
The sand itself is great for sunbathing. Early mornings see joggers and dog walkers. At sunset there are volleyball games, soccer and a friendly mix of locals, expats and tourists catching the sunset.
PLAYA MADERAS
The most famous surf spot in the region, and for good reason. Surfers have been flocking to Playa Maderas since before there was a paved toad to San Juan Del Sur.
Consistent year-round waves, which are a rarity in a good surf break, mean there’s something to ride most days of the year. Maderas has hosted numerous international surf competitions, include the Central American Games.
There are both lefts and rights to keep all everyone happy. Though the lefts do tend to be longer and more common.
On land the vibe is funky and communal. The beachside bars & restaurants serv up cold drinks, fresh food, and killer views. Volleyball games often break out in front.
HERMOSA BEACH
Hermosa is another one of those beaches that has something for everyone. From the time you enter at the private gate ($3 per person) there’s a lot to do. The beach club has tons of tables, chairs and hammocks in the shade, perfect for lazing about and ready a book.
REMANSO BEACH
The closest surfing beach to San Juan Del Sur. Wave height depends on the swell. If the waves are big at Playa Maderas then there are probably mid-sized waves at Remanso.
It’s great beach for beginner to intermediate surfers. The waves aren’t too powerful but on a good day you can catch both lefts and rights.
YANKEE BEACH
One of my personal favorites, Playa Yankee is an awesome surf beach that also has some of the best sand in the area. Exposed to swells from the south, the ocean throws up wedges just in front of the parking lot that make for killer lefts.
TAMARINDO BEACH
Tamarindo is a small, usually uncrowded beach just to the south of Playa Remanso. It's surf-able with the right tide and accessible through the Remanso beach club development.
MARSELLA BEACH
Just south of Playa Maderas, with access from the same branch road off of “La Chocolata”, Playa Marsella is the relaxed cousin to funky Maderas. Quiet and calm it’s great for kids and swimming.
MAJAGUAL BEACH
Majagual has a beautiful stretch of golden soft sand and almost no development. Waves can be a little bigger than Playa Marsella, and there isn’t too much for shade, but it’s undeniably stunning.
ESCAMECA BEACH
Escameca is the home of the Costa Dulce community and resort. It's beautiful, usually uncrowded, and has some excellent waves.
COCO BEACH
Venturing further south toward the the Costa Rican border you’ll find Playa Coco. If you really want to get away from the crowds this is the spot. Another wide & calm stretch of sand, on a weekday you’ll probably be the only one there.
NACALSCOLO BEACH
Playa Nacalscolo is the first beach to the north of San Juan Del Sur. It's a pebble beach so not your ideal sunbathing spot. It's a great place for a family day. Entry fee is $1 per person, mostly to cover the security for your car.
PENA ROTA BEACH
Pena Rota is an undiscovered gem about 10 minutes south of San Juan Del Sur. It's got a couple beach bar shacks on it, and usually is uncrowded. It's got a really cool rock formation and there's a great spot just to get away from it all.
LA FLOR BEACH
Playa La Flor is a must-visit if you’re here during laying or hatching times. Bordered by a tropical woodland and protected by its reserve status, this beach is a haven for our aquatic friends.
CALA AZUL / EL TORO BEACH
El Toro it's a small beach just to the north of Nacalscolo. Accessible through the private community it's got a nice little combination of rock and pebble beach.
OCOTAL BEACH
Also known as Morgans Rock beach, it's located just north of Playa Majagual. A long horsehoe shaped stretch of sand that's almost always deserted.
PLAYA BLANCA BEACH
If you're taking one of the sailing trips from San Juan Del Sur this is the beach you stop at. The land behind is privately owned but you can jump in and swim to the sand from your boat.
Get there by sailing with Nica Sail and Surf or Esmerelda Sailing

I own a lot 1000' from playa, Marsella. Bosques del mar development. It's calm water is great for kayaking. Keep my boat on the beach n front of the developments beach access lot. It has everything. Restroom, covered tables, barbecue pits. I can walk there in 5 min. It's the best I"ve seen. Been here in sjds since 2010. I can sail to San Juan in 20 min. My boats have electric motors sun roof and pontoons. Comes apart quickly and tows with a atv.

Beautiful beaches - on the north end: Playa Majagual / Maderas (surfing) are super nice. South of SJDS - I have only been to Playa Coco which phenomenal as well. Super chill vibe and definitely not overdeveloped. Ice cold Tona's on the beach - doesn't get much better than that!

Simplemente bello
NICARAGUA the best place in central america 🚣♀️🏝🚣♀️🚣♀️🇳🇮🇳🇮🦈🚢🚢🏊♀️🏊♀️
The south coast rules. Don't much like Managua and Leon. Too crowded and the beaches are not as nice. SJDS rules A nice break from the beach is lake Arenal, Fortuna in Costa Rica. Love the hot spring resorts.
Amazing
much appreciated!
Costa rica no le llega ni alos talones a la bella Nicaragua
Las mejores playas están en el pacifico
Nice video Nicaragua has alot of potential for investors to build plenty of Hotel resorts along the Pacific ocean all that land just like Dubai was built from the ground up.
