Watersports
Beaches on the Pacific coast offer safe swimming as do those on the Caribbean, including the popular Corn Islands. Often the better beaches have a small entrance charge. Many of the better hotels have pools open to non-residents. In the volcanic crater lagoons, there is also safe swimming. Bathing in Lake Managua should be avoided due to contamination, although steps to clean up the lake are being taken. Bathing is possible in the Laguna de Tiscapa. El Velero beach or Pochomil on the Pacific coast are ideal for surfing as are a number of other beaches along the west coast.
Other
There are a number of good fishing spots along the country’s waterways and seashores. Baseball is the national game.
