Paddling the Padre Ramos and Touring the Highland Volcanoes of NW Nicaragua

These multi-day adventures feature sea kayaking, trekking, cultural exchange, and exploration throughout the Pacific Northwest Coast of Nicaragua. Unexplored by most, this piece of the planet will reward you with an expanse of serene coastline, rugged volcanoes, a vibrant and authentic cultural experience, and an overflowing supply of hospitality.

Our Nicaragua program is built on our staff of professional guides, cooks, and drivers, as well as our partnerships with local families and locally-owned hotels and restaurants.  Our mission is to expand the realm of possibilities for international travelers and the people of Nicaragua.  Our focus on education, discovery of new places and cultures, and local partnerships has made our tours and our company a growing success.
