Our Arrival

We caught the 5pm ferry on Thursday from Granada. The ferry took 12 hours and stopped at Ometepe but not the other 2 stops even though people had tickets for there. When we arrived nowhere was open so we sat at the waterfront until the first hostel opened at around 6:30am.



Where We Stayed

Hospedaje El Madrono - $10 for a double room with shared bathroom. On the waterfront with a nice balcony to sit on. Toilets are flushed with a bucket of water and a scoop and bring your own toilet roll.



What We Did

Visit the fort and the cannons by restaurant Mirador. Not much to see.



Where We Ate

The Bus Station - the usual chicken and rice etc for C$70. In the mornings people sell plastic plates of food for C$30.

The shacks in the waterfront have a nice fish soup and cheap beer.

The hostel next door to ours has a club with C$40 litres of beer.



Where We Went Next

We caught a 12pm slow boat from the port to El Castillo C$100.
