City overview
Nicaragua pairs pastel colonial cities, chains of volcanoes, and a laid-back Pacific coast surf town with one of Central America's smallest and warmest Jewish communities. Chabad of Juan Del Sur, founded in 2012 by Rabbi David Atar and Mrs. Chani Atar, is the country's only Jewish institution and anchors all of its kosher infrastructure in the beach town of San Juan del Sur. From its visitor center travelers can register for Shabbat meals, order kosher food to go, and join daily and Shabbat prayers. From San Juan del Sur, Granada's colonial streets, Leon's UNESCO cathedral, and the volcanoes of Masaya, Mombacho and Ometepe are all within a day's reach.
