Program Overview
- Program Description:
-
Study abroad this summer in Nicaragua with Blyth Academy International Summers!
Nicaragua’s cool surf towns, gorgeous coastal beaches, lush rainforests, and volcanic peaks make it one of the must-see places in Latin America. Compared with its well-traversed neighbour to the south, Costa Rica, Nicaragua offers visitors a less touristy experience, with destinations and sights not overcrowded with other travellers.
Nature lovers will have ample time for outdoor thrills, including zip lining through the Nicaraguan treetops, diving in the swimming hole at Ojo de Agua, taking a boat trip to the Isletas de Granada, and hiking through the cloud forests of Ometepe Island to spot howler monkeys, birds, and more than 1,700 petroglyph rock carvings. Students will have the option to board down the slopes of the Cerro Negro Volcano, a thrill of a lifetime that will make for amazing Instagram moments they can remember forever.
