  Nicaragua: Shipwrecked on Little Corn Island (GAA) – 8 Days
from $510 USD

Spend eight days fishing, exploring reefs, or just chilling in a hammock on Little Corn Island, off the Atlantic coast of Nicaragua. Untarnished by the noise and congestion of cars, the island is the most pristine and least developed of the two Corn Islands. Sitting on a remote cliff at the ocean's edge, Casa Iguana is perfect for those who love a natural, private, and unspoiled island setting.

Itinerary

Day: Description:
1 Arrive Little Corn Island
Arrive on Little Corn at any time. There are no planned activities, so check-in at Casa Iguana and relax.
2-7 Little Corn Island
You have 6 days to be active and busy every day...or just relax on the beach! Options for exploring this tropical island paradise include up to 5 SCUBA diving trips or up to 3 days of fishing and all-you-can handle swimming and snorkelling, just to name a few.

The Corn Islands are two Caribbean islands approximately 70 miles off the Atlantic coast of Nicaragua. Once ruled by the British, they are now part of the Autonomous Region of Nicaragua, and are largely self-governed. They are still unspoiled by major development and have much to offer the adventurous traveller in the way of sights and natural beauty. The people here (who speak primarily English, as well as Spanish) are warm and friendly, and are genuine in their welcoming and helpful manner.

Little Corn Island, the most pristine and least developed of the two, isn't tarnished by the noise and congestion of cars. This works well here because the dive shop, the hotel, restaurants, and beaches, are all within easy walking distance of each other. Enjoy a wonderful, relaxed, and unspoiled Caribbean setting where lying in a hammock and enjoying the ocean breeze is a favourite local pastime. Little Corn Island is a tropical island paradise, far off the beaten path, unspoiled and completely unaffected by tourism. Little Corn Island is inhabited by 750 or so English-speaking people.

There are some 20 different dive sites located all around the island. The boat trip from the dive shop to the dive site takes between 5 to 15 minutes. Average depth is between 30 to 80 feet, which allows safe and long bottom times which often go 55 minutes or longer, air supply permitting. The conditions are excellent for the underwater photography enthusiast. Year round water temperatures average 28 degrees Celsius (82 degrees Fahrenheit) and visibility is around 50 feet.
