 Located approximately three
hours from Managua, an hour and half from Juan Del Sur and 45 minutes
from Rivas, Two Brothers Surf Resort overlooks the Pacific Ocean
just beyond the small community of Las Salinas in the Rivas District
of Nicaragua. Two Brothers is centrally located between Playa Guascate
and El Astrillero, providing for a fun and challenging variety of point,
reef, and river mouth beach breaks.
Las Salinas
The village of Las Salinas is named for this small community’s
traditional source of income “salt,” which can be seen
being harvested from the sea in large salt flats that pepper the
landscape around the foothills of Two Brothers. During the dry season,
the barns around Las Salinas look as if they might bust at the seams,
the salt piled high inside and pouring through the old wooden slats
of the barns.
The town, which does not have much to offer in the way
of infrastructure, has much to offer in the way of community. The
people of Las Salinas are warm, kind and generous and will happily
share their freshly-baked breads or sweet mangos plucked from their
trees. Life is simple here, and the pace will allow you to stop and
experience the culture and friendliness of our Nicaraguan neighbors.
El Astrillero
A small traditional Nicaraguan village, El Astrillero offers a glimpse
into the simple way of life in a fishing village, in an environment
where men can be seen fixing nets along the road and small groups
of barefoot boys play baseball in the nearby empty field.
El
Astrillero has a beautiful small cove where we harbor our 28-foot
panga, “Endless Summer” and is an ideal place to dive for
fish and lobster. A good indication that the fish are biting is when
you see local kids from El Astrillero fishing from the rocks. They
will happily show you the best bait and their own method of fishing
with hand lines. Should you catch no fish diving or hand lining, no
worries! You will be welcome in the village of El Astrillero
to buy fish from the big green house along the beach, where the seasoned
local fisherman will undoubtedly have had better luck.
