Having flown out of Waspam to Managua, we rented a car and drove to the town of San Jorge. This is simply an overnight stop on our way to the volcano island of Ometepe, located in Lake Nicaragua.
Catching the ferry from San Jorge to the town of Moyogalpa on Ometepe was uneventful. The skies were overcast, wind blowing a bit, and water a little choppy. The entire trip took around 90 minutes.

In addition to Volcano Concepcion and Maderas, there are other touristy things to do one Ometepe island. With the cloud cover and intermittent rain, we decided to forgo hiking the volcanoes and visited a couple museums, a natural swimming hole, and a nature trail.
Overall visiting Ometepe Island was fine, but it would have been better had the weather cooperated.
