NICARAGUA!! Volcano Boarding and Granada Highlights with Apoyo Laguna & Islets of Granada

In this video I take you to the best of Nicaragua for volcano boarding at Cerro Negro. I also share the Granada highlights:

Apoyo Laguna
Laguna Beach Club
Islets of Granada on Lake Nicaragua
Volcano Boarding is somewhat like riding a sled down a steep hill, however, you are sliding down an active volcano on ash. Most people sit on the heavy board, however, some brave ones stand on it like snowboarding. It can be an extreme sport if you have the need for speed. The speed record at Cerro Negro is over 100 kph. However, being cautious, I safely experienced it feeling in control. By keeping your feet in the sand as you go down, the brakes are on to manage speed.

Granada is in western Nicaragua on the shores of Lake Nicaragua. It had a strong indigenous population until the Spanish conquest. Francisco Hernandez de Cordoba renamed Granada after the city of the same name in Spain. Granada is an important city for Nicaragua both economically and politically. Its rivalry with Granada is legendary for being the capital city of Nicaragua. Both cities are steeped in history with beautiful colonial architecture. After years of going back and forth, in 1852 they compromised making Managua the capital.
