Corn Islands tips needed

[seanbesser]

My wife and I are thinking about diving off the Corn Islands next month. Any reviews, thoughts, tips, advice, etc. on diving, where to stay, how to get there, etc.? What are the major differences between Little Corn Island and Big Corn Island? Is there diving off both of them? Which is better?

Hi there ... I might a late answer ... but in case you havent made the trip here it goes:

Corn Island: is the "big" island .. more stuff to do .. it is a n island with a little town more hotels and restaurants ... sear for Chema's dive shop...

Little corn: small island .. have to take a boat to get there 40 min boat charges aroun $7 to take you there... only 2 or 3 hotels ... no pave roads, no cars, no nothing just pure wild... (that's why i love it) ... two recomendations for staying .. hotel casa iguana (ecolodge) or dolphin's hotel ... first w/o AC (you dont need ac)... dive shop either the one from casa iguana or the one from delphines... ask them to take you to dive site: shark hole.

How to get there... get to managua capital of nicaragua and then get a ticket to corn island around $160 ... visit Casa Iguana - Little Corn Island ... there is a lot of info on what to wear how to get there etc ....

Have fun
