How's the kayaking in and around San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua and the rafting in and around San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua?

You can kayak in the San Juan del Sur bay, or venture off in the different estuary that surrounds San Juan del Sur.

 

At Morgan´s Rock, we have an estuary that we use for kayaking and bird watching.  (You can see it pictured to the right.)

 

The best time for kayaking in San Juan del Sur is during the very early morning, or right before sunset.

There are kayaking tours in San Juan Del Sur but they are not as organized as in other places. There are one or two kayaking options. Day tours usually take people out for ocean kayaking to neighboring beaches where the water is calm and there’s not a lot of big waves.

The most popular place for kayaking would be the lakes. There are several different lakes in Nicaragua where people go kayaking. One of the main places where they have kayaking tours are through the islands of Granada in Lake Nicaragua (1 hour and 10 minutes by car). They have several different types of kayaking tours but most of them are geared towards bird watching, nature watching and tours of the islands of Nicaragua. Lake Nicaragua is a fresh water lake with lush vegetation. The lake has an area which has about 365 small islands that is called Las Isletas, which make for a nice, scenic kayaking experience.  

 

The only rafting spot in Nicaragua which I know of, would be in the north-eastern region close to the El Cañon de Somoto (about 5 hours from San Juan Del Sur by car). There are rivers over there that are great for rafting.

There is kayaking in Nicaragua, which is usually done in the lakes. I do not see a lot of sea kayaking; only freshwater kayaking because the waves in the sea and the surf can be challenging. It is harder to manage a kayak in the ocean.
