This is one of the most interesting areas of the country since some of the turning points in history occurred in this city or its surroundings. The first Indian tribes coming from the north established their habitat in the isthmus of Rivas. The United States history also has an important page here. Thousands of Americans crossed from New York to the West Coast via San Juan del Norte, the San Juan River, Lake Nicaragua and San Juan del Sur.
 
ESSENCE OF THE AREA
A rustic, laid-back beach town, port, 17 miles from Rivas, (like the beaches of Guanacaste used to look like 20 years ago), with its perfect bay and crescent beach, and the great sunsets are the best show in town, and you will wish you could stay for one more sunset, the beachfront road has all the restaurants and some small hotels.
RECOMMENDED SIGHTSEEING & ACTIVITIES
Nature lovers can explore the flora and fauna found in the tropical forests surrounding San Juan del Sur. Horseback riding and Canopy tours can be done to experience this area.

It is also well known by surfers. There are beaches close by that are perfect for surfing with 4-meter waves. Other water sports are offered too, like diving and snorkeling for having tranquil and crystalline waters, and amazing coral reefs. Sportfishing can be practiced year round too.

La Flor Wildlife Refuge, an important nesting area for marince turtles, is only 20 km. from San Juan del Sur. The green 'Lora' sea turtle and the leatherback 'Baula' turtle can be observed here.
