Surfing Turtle is a lively, fun and social beachfront hostel located on a beautiful stretch of empty beaches in Isla Los Brasiles, at Northern Nicaragua’s Pacific Coast, Central America. It is a 20 minute drive from the historic city of Leon, a short boat ride and horse cart ride on the island. Also, we explore travel with an off the grid approach, powered with solar panels, an onsite turtle hatchery, and growing some of our sown food. The Lodge provides all the necessary amenities.

Fantastic
Good times!

We came with a group of 8 and we had such an amazing time at the Surfing Turtle Lodge! Perfect location on the beach, beautiful sunsets, beers, food, bonfires, music skinny dipping, volleyball... it has everything. The beds are so comfy and the ocean breeze keeps you cool all night. Aprille and her team went out of their way to make sure we had a geat time. Nicaragua is a bit quiet right now but PLEASE make sure you come so great hostels like this can continue to run!

It was paradise

We arrived just after they reopened and had the place to ourselves.Staff and volunteer Danicia especially made it a really lovely time for us. After the first night we knew this place was something great and actually doubled our time at the lodge. Getting there was a fun adventure on its own by taking a boat and horse and carriage ride - I can only see the atmosphere improving even more once people find this place and Nicaragua again!
