Lake Nicaragua, Nicaragua
Lake Nicaragua is the biggest lake in the entire region of Central America. Due to the lake's size, two islands, one of which is an active volcano, can be found there. Due to Lake Nicaragua's immense size, substantial waves, and the potentially hazardous storms that have been known to form over its surface, the Spanish initially mistook it for a sea when they first saw it. The presence of several species, such as sawfish, tarpon, and even sharks, that swim beneath the water's surface but are often only seen in saltwater gives Lake Nicaragua another sea-like quality.
However, don't let it deter you from entering the ocean. When the weather is nice, locals enjoy relaxing at the lake's beaches, and boat cruises are another well-liked tourist activity.
