Nicaragua's surf and party beach where solo travelers join the legendary Sunday Funday, learn to surf, and watch the Pacific sunset from beside a hilltop Christ statue.
Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
San Juan del Sur is Nicaragua's prime beach party and surf town — extremely social with a well-established backpacker and surf community. The Sunday Funday bar crawl is legendary for meeting people. Surf lessons are the main solo icebreaker. The statue of Christ above town is a good solo morning hike with extraordinary views. Budget accommodation is excellent value.
