The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Pochomil Viejo Beach (Managua) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun.

Pochomil Viejo is a stunning location, with its waters captivatingly beautiful at any time of day or night. However, be aware that there are sharks in the area.

Taking a stroll on the beach is pleasant, however, the eateries are quite pricey, so it's advisable to bring your own food if you're looking to save some money.

This is a great spot, situated conveniently close to a wonderful beach. The house is very cozy, tidy, and makes the most of its outdoor space. Kenia and Marlon are incredibly attentive hosts. Highly recommended!

This beach is a great spot for relaxation, with plenty of almond and coconut trees to provide shade. It's also great for surfing, and there are a few natural swimming pools. We rented a large and comfortable house for 12 people, which had its own swimming pool - perfect for both adults and children. There's a small town about 15 minutes away, where you can buy groceries and take some nice pictures. We just got back home yesterday. The weather was hot, making it ideal for a week at the beach - which is exactly what we did!

Pochomil Viejo is a special place for those of us who have been there. It's private, exclusive, and not overly crowded. The waves are great and the scenery is spectacular, making it the perfect spot for a weekend getaway with family and friends. Nicaragua is lucky to have such a unique paradise in Pochomil Viejo - highly recommended!
