Beach & Surf

The Orquidea stands tall above Playa Yankee, widely recognized as one of the most beautiful beaches in all of Nicaragua. The least busy of all the beaches in the San Juan del Sur area, visitors are likely to have the vast expanse of sand and surf to themselves. This natural and undeveloped gem, an exquisite example of the raw and wild beauty of this country, is also a top surfing spot sought after by beginners and experts alike. On the horizon to the south stand the majestic and untouched peaks of Parque Nacional de Santa Rosa in Costa Rica. Accessible via a short four-wheeler ride or walk, Playa Yankee is the perfect setting for a peaceful, sunny day with friends and family.

If surfing is your passion, look no further. Nicaragua is known worldwide as a premier surf destination, and at one kilometer in length, Playa Yankeeโ€™s beachfront provides one of the longest shore breaks available to surfers looking for the perfect wave. Whether you are a serious shredder or just getting started, you can bring your own favorite board from home or rent one of our short- or longboards. We can also help set up a surf lesson for you with one of the talented local surf instructors.

If youโ€™re not quite ready to take on surfing or just want to relax, we also have boogie boards and beach chairs available for daily rental.
