Montibelli is a great birding spot in the dry tropical forest. Fairly easy roads and trails meander around shade grown coffee fields, edged by forest, offering good visibility of multiple habitats. Eduardo is a talented guide with a keen eye. The staff are friendly. The accommodations are rustic, but comfortable. The coffee is great. The food is good, and we ate everything offered at our meals (without any issues). Some highlights: Northern Potoo, Ferr. Pygmy Owl, Turq. br. Motmot, Collared Aracari, several Trogons, and a variety of Hummingbirds, Flycatchers, and Warblers. 70+ species over a few relaxed paced days. Take in the Chocoyero Reserve while you're here. It's just down the road (thought it is a bumpy and slow road...).

Playa el Coco is one of the most beautiful beach of Nicaragua.The beach is sandy, there are not rocks, water is warm. Be aware of the stingrays when the water get cold, fortunately, it happens a few times during a year. My family and I have live there for 14 years. Info of the houses you can rent find it at CASAS DE VACACIONES on facebook. Do not forget to visit Playa la Flor, beach where every year thousand of females olive ridley sea turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) come together on the same beach to lay eggs, a unique mass nesting called arribada.

We booked a tour with tree huggers, from Luna International Hostel. We spent a great day with gentle horses, nice landscapes, nice company of the guide and horse owner Darvin, who explained everything about the mountain, agriculture, how the community lives and how they care about the environment. It is amazing to be on a horse so you can stop watching your feet and enjoy the mountains.
