DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF THE VOLCANIC LAKES

Embark on a captivating underwater journey in the heart of Apoyo and Xiloa Lakes, both situated on the renowned 'Ring of Fire' in the enchanting southwestern region of Nicaragua. These stunning aquatic environments, home to fascinating endemic fish species, unfold within the craters created by powerful volcanic explosions.  Apoyo's active thermal vents and Xiloa's astonishing 80 meters depth underwater cliff are testaments to the awe-inspiring forces of nature.


 Additionally, akin to Darwin's finches on the Galapagos Islands, where each island hosts distinct finch species, over the course of several millennia of evolution, each volcanic lake has now developed its own unique species of fish.
