Sandra Scott Travels: Visiting Ometepe Island’s Two Volcanoes
John and I arrived in Nicaragua late in the afternoon and so we stayed at the Las Mercedes Best Western Hotel which is across from the airport. The hotel provides free transportation but it is walkable from the airport. Ometepe Island, located in Lake Nicaragua, is one of the world’s largest freshwater islands. The island was formed thousands of years ago when sand accumulated creating an isthmus between the two volcanoes. Only the Conception Volcano is active.
