Little Corn Island / Big Corn / Granada 🇳🇮

Almost 3 weeks are over, one remains, I'm sitting on the plane on the way back from Big Corn Island to Managua.
We spent a few relaxing days on Little Corn Island. And as soon as you arrive it becomes clear that there is a different vibe on the island than on the mainland. Aside from the rather small plane, the boat trip with the pangas was also quite sporty. Whoever sits in the back will get wet, whoever sits in the front is definitely at risk of puking.
We had already decided on diving courses for ourselves, Karo Open Water, I the Advanced, including accommodation and two Fundives $780, that's really impressive. So the bad weather was annoying, but not really a problem because we were under water a lot and busy studying.

Only the strong winds ensured that the visibility was between 2 and 25 meters and you were rocked hard under and above the water.
My highlight at the site was definitely the night dive, where I met many animals that I had never seen before.
Nurse sharks, turtles, some rays, octopus, squid, bioluminescence and a few more. So 5 days were spent doing a lot of diving, although there wasn't much else on the island except diving and hanging out, both of which suit me. In addition, after 36 hours on the island you almost certainly know 80% of all the people living on the island.
Try the falcon, which dismantled an entire seagull right in front of our eyes.
Another thing worth mentioning is the excellent lobster that you can get here straight from the sea. It's supposed to be fantastic, but luckily for me there were all sorts of other options to eat. For example chicken, rice, beans or in another order.
After a total of 6 nights on Little Corn we go to Big Corn Island, again with a small boat, this time with rain. So we arrive in the Caribbean paradise completely soaked, the sun is shining and the idea of having another day at the beach seems to work. We spend the whole day on the beach, eating and hanging out until we find that the floating bar is finally open. Even though the sunset has already passed, we wave the boat over and have another drink on the water. The whole thing is something between cool and a bit stupid and I wonder who thought that. And I think it was definitely a fun evening when this idea came about.
It was good on both islands. We return to the mainland in the small Cessna and drive directly from Managua back to Granada.
What's next? El Salvador is canceled, seems too stressful and flying isn't really an option either. So we're now slowly moving south via Granada and San Juan del Sur, back to Costa Rica, not really in the mood but we'll fly home from San José and give the whole thing another chance.
From Granada we went to Masaya Volcano, why? You can see lava. Is it a spectacular number? Yes, of course, but we're not the only ones who don't feel like traipsing up a volcano, so it's pretty crowded there. But being able to see the inside of the earth is really cool. Finally, the outstanding restaurant should be mentioned, in which there was a really good steak/meat, for which in Germany you certainly pay a lot more on the table.
Two more nights in Maderas, the surf spot for beginners, near San Juan del Sur. We rent a motorbike (unfortunately without brakes), go surfing for a day and live in a completely surreal Airbnb shack and then set off for la Fortuna.
So that's it for Nicaragua, it was very good!
