You Wouldn’t Believe This is Nicaragua (Big Corn Island Tour)

In this Nicaragua Travel Vlog I take you to the best place to visit in Central America for a Big Corn Island Tour. The Corn Islands are two secret Nicaraguan islands located in the middle of the Caribbean sea. Big Corn Island and Little Corn Island are no doubt, the best place to visit in Nicaragua and are truly a Nicaraguan paradise. Big Corn Island is home to a unique cultural where the locals typically speak Spanish, Creole, and English and eat a ton of delicious seafood and coconut infused dishes.
In this Big Corn Island Tour I take you around the island on my scooter, showing you all the best things to do on Big Corn Island. To start off my tour of Big Corn Island Nicaragua I climb for amazing views of the Caribbean sea. After getting back on my scooter, I ended up stumbling upon an abandoned home with incredible views of the Caribbean and tall palm trees. After some delicious food for lunch and dinner, I eventually make my way over to Arenas Beach Hotel and Arenas Beach, which is home to the best beach on the island with soft white sand and turquoise blue water. This beach is perfect for swimming and relaxing, and is even home to some great snorkeling if you walk further down the beach. I end my time on Big Corn Island with the famous island dish called Rundown, which is a delicious coconut seafood stew.
I hope that after watching my Big Corn Island Vlog you can now see why the Corn Islands are the best place to visit in Nicaragua!

In the month of October migratory birds would come down from the north and the island would be adorned with a lot of beautiful bird species.

Hi Matt! My husband and I are planning a trip to Nicaragua in the beginning of July. After seeing your video, Big Corn Island is a must. Can you please advise on the best way to get to the Island from the mainland, where to rent a motorbike for two, do we need our own snorkeling equipment, etc. Thank you!!!

[@MattKramerTravels]

I'm happy to hear that you will go to the Corn Islands! The easiest way is to fly from Managua, otherwise I think you can take a boat from Bluefields. There are places to rent snorkel gear on the island, but it's always nice to have your own as there are so many places to snorkel. There are a few places to rent motorbikes on the island, so I would ask your accommodation when you arrive.

[@rogan33]

You need to check out the Grenadine islands of St. Vincent also.

[@jlowd6285]

Thank you Matt for such an awesome video. I appreciate all the detailed step by step explanation of your adventure in Corn Island. I've been wanting to visit the island but I haven't had the opportunity to do it. How are people dealing with Covid there? Is it safe to drink the local water there? I remember that I got sick in Cancun just by eating a fresh salad there. I was told not to eat anything that is touch by their local water unless is bottled water. Thank you again for showing us a video of this wonderful place. I'm hoping to start traveling as soon as it's safe to travel to other countries (when Covid is under control). Btw, did you notice a difference in the cost of food when you paid with US dollars vs. Córdoba? Is US dollar accepted by everyone in the island?

[@MattKramerTravels]

Thanks so much! From what I was told, it’s not recommended to drink the tap water. Most places accept US dollar, though the Cordoba is more widely used, and i didn’t notice a price difference between the two currencies. I hope you get the chance to visit one day!

[@ingridleer9849]

We drink well water and some (mostly the expats... except me... drink bottled water). I never got sick of the fresh natural well water, without fluoride.

[@mattmtoronto]

The abandoned place was in the process of becoming a hotel I believe called Lola's. I don't think they ever got all the permits in order so it was halted. The kitchen there was operational for a while. I think it was 7 years ago our first trip and we had a rondon soup there.

Hello Matt. Beautiful Big Corn Island I haven't heard of. I have questions: how much does the flight cost and how long does it take? How much is the accommodation? How much did you pay for the "Rundow" dish, it looks delicious? Is fuel expensive and what is the cost of renting a scooter? And the last question :) Why don't you wear a helmet? Sorry, it might be worth going there, but what are the prices? You don't say much about it in this vlog. Greetings .

[@MattKramerTravels]

Hello. You can take a flight from Managua on La Costena Airlines which costs ~$150 USD roundtrip or you can take busses to Bluefields Nicaragua and then a boat, which would be cheaper. Accommodation ranges from ~$15-$100+USD per night depending on where you stay. I cannot remember the cost of fuel and I had a friend who let me rent a scooter. The rundown dish was ~$8 USD. I wish I had a helmet but i unfortunately couldn't find one on the island. It's definitely worth the trip to the Corn Islands!

The cost of living can vary. You can live quite affordably with your basic necessities but because it's an island and many items have to be imported, some items can be quite expensive.
