Danger in Nicaragua - Is Legit

^^^this is huge^^^ The traveler's etiquette.

 

The Midget Gang is loose again...? Well, I'm glad to hear that they escaped from the windowless white van of duct tape & doome!

oh and there are banditos in nica 3 people got robbed last week with a gun/ machete. dont be an idiot and go on the beach at night, dude dont do that in my home town a lot of times, your **** has and will be robbed. hilton head island ,sc - nica of the south

 

my opinion also

 

Tell you where i'm not going... the Ivory Coast

 

You might get jacked on Singer Island late at night. Definitely across the bridge in Riviera Beach. You don't have to catch a plane to be in the wrong place.

 

exactly my point

 

Just wanted to add my 2 cents here. I, perhaps naively, travelled around Nica for 5 months a couple years back and never had any issues. Bought a car in CR and cruised up the coast checking out all the different surf spots along the way. Spent most of my time in a small town of Aposentillo, next to a wave called "the boom". Grant it, it's much more remote and touristy than SJDS, and I'm sure that in itself made it safer. Either way, it wasn't until I got back home that I heard all the horror stories...

 

Much more remote AND touristy?? I have been all around Nica twice by public bus and always good vibes.....I speak spanish though....Spent some time at the boom too but in Asserradores...I see there's some new "surf hotels" round there.....anything good and cheap?

 

Nicaragua is pretty crowded now was there 15 years ago. You want sketchy and crime ridden head to el Salvador. Cheap weed and beer costs 75 cents. The ms 13 ain’t so bad either
