Horseback Riding

An unbelievable, unforgettable experience. Not only is the ride to and on the beach magnificent, but the people who run this ranch are the most genuine you will ever meet. Visiting Ranchero Chilemate is a must do for a visit in SJDS.

Wonderful, low key beach with hammocks and food/drink service as well as secure lockers. For first-time beachgoers in Nicaragua, this should be your first stop. Surf rentals/lessons available onsite.

Cute, smaller beach away from the scene. A great time to experiment with surfing, or spend a day reading a book basking in the beauty of this more chilled out beach scene. Food, beverage and surf boards available on-site.

A 2-minute walk from the beach, this laid-back hotel offers views of the Pacific Ocean, and is 2 km from the Christ of the Mercy statue. Just a cool place to chill out!
