At some beach

This is a beautiful sunset (almost) in Corinto, Nicaragua. It's about a three hour drive from Managua, 30 minutes from Chinandega. This is taken from one of three islands that are in front of the port of Corinto. It's a nice place to spend the afternoon! Any takers? Come on down!!!

Lunch in Corinto

We went with our landlords, Roberto and Rosita Carrillo, on Thursday to have lunch.  By the way, they have the best clothing stores in Chinandega - La Elegancia #1 and #2.  Stop in for some great deals on really good clothing! We went to Paso Caballos (Corinto) and ate at the Español.  Note the excellent seafood!!!  The medium fried fish cost $C165 (US$8.25).   The sea bass filet in garlic butter cost C$175 (US$8.50); the fried shrimp with garlic butter or mayonnaise cost C$245 (US$12.25).  The seafood soup cost C$170 (US$8.50) and is a serving double of what is pictured.  Not the cheapest but umm umm good!

Boat in Corinto/Barco en Corinto

Here's a nice view of a large boat waiting offshore to unload or load at the Corinto, Nicaragua port. The shot is taken from an island right off the coast of Corinto named Castañones. You can get a boat ride across from the fishing docks at El Espigón.

Aquí está una vista bonita de un barco grande, esperando cargar o descargar en el puerto de Corinto, Nicaragua. Se tomó la foto desde una isla frente a la costa de Corinto, llamada Castañones. Podés ir a la isla en lancha desde la zona de los pescadores en El Espigón.
