Just 50 miles off Nicaragua’s Caribbean coast lies Corn Island, a paradise made up of two islands: Big Corn and Little Corn. With crystal-clear turquoise waters, soft white sand, and a laid-back island lifestyle, this destination is one of the Caribbean’s best-kept secrets.
Life by the Sea
Corn Islanders are known for their warm hospitality and deep seafaring traditions. Fishing, boat-building, and storytelling by the shore have been passed down through generations, creating a rhythm of life that is both simple and rich.
A Taste of the Islands
Food here is the true flavor of the Caribbean — uncomplicated, fresh, and infused with coconut. From coconut milk stews to grilled seafood seasoned with tropical herbs, nearly every dish carries the essence of island living.
Why Visit?
Whether you’re exploring the vibrant underwater world, strolling the beaches of Big Corn, or stargazing on Little Corn, the islands invite you to slow down, connect, and live in harmony with nature.
