What do do...
Visit and go up in bell towers of the beautiful churches, walk along the promenade, check out the old railway station, look at (or try) the local restaurants on the pedestrian street (la Calzada) or just get lost in the colonial streets of the city. A good orientation point is the towers of the cathedral on the main square that you can see from many points in the city.

Granada (and Nicaragua overall) is safe, you just have to keep the basic rules that applies anywhere in the word. (Don’t use or wear expensive and flashy cameras, jewels; don’t go to empty streets by night, etc.) So you can walk everywhere and feel safe!

Laguna de apoyo
A lake in a volcanic crater. This is a must if you are in Granada, the water is a little mineralic and crystal clear, we have never felt something like this before. We can help you organinzing the trip.

Boat trip or kayaking on Lake Nicaragua, around the islands
It's a very nice program, you don't have to make reservation, just go there and get on a boat trip (20-25$/boat) or rent a kayak (10$) and explore the islands on your own.
