Nicaragua is still being discovered. Intrepid visitors are retracing the steps of conquistadors and pirates, finding modern day treasure in the form of golden sunsets, silver beaches, and skilled handicrafts. Whatever you're looking for it has it all -- bustling cities and isolated villages, luxury hotels and rustic ecolodges, dense rainforest and wide-open beaches. You can swing from a hammock or zip over a forest, sail around islands, or surf down a volcano.
