Ometepe

Ometepe Island is also a popular tourist attraction in Nicaragua. Ometepe is the largest island in one of Central America's largest lakes and is home to two volcanoes: the active Volcano Concepcion and the dormant Volcano Maderas. While the island is heavily reliant on agriculture, tourism on the island is flourishing, especially now that you can climb the volcanos, swim in the lake, explore and trek its beautiful forests, and learn about the island's ancient past by seeing the petroglyphs and stone monuments.

Isolated from the rest of Nicaragua by the Cocibolca, Nicaragua's indigenous name for Lake Nicaragua, Ometepe feels cut off from the rest of the world. The island dubbed the "Oasis of Peace," is a captivating site steeped in history and full of breathtaking vistas and activities.
