“Shall we surf Yankee or Madera, Colorado or Panga Drops?”

Surfers in Nicaragua are spoiled. You’ll find consistent lefts, barreling rights, peeling point breaks and hollow A-frame peaks to suit all levels of surfer.

Life is good for many people living abroad. Often mentioned are things like a lower cost of living, more affordable real estate, the experience of a new culture, cheaper healthcare and warmer weather.

Still, living overseas is not for everyone. The best way to determine whether Nicaragua is right for you is to come and experience it first hand.
