After spending my morning in Rivas, I headed off to San Juan de Sur. Come with me as I enjoy some Nicaraguan street food and enjoy the sights and sounds of San Juan de Sur, Nicaragua!
San Juan de Sur is a beach paradise in southern Nicaragua. It’s just 50 kilometers from the Costa Rican border. It’s beautiful, and it isn’t too touristy. There are lots of locals and street food vendors.
👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/...
We saw vendors selling elote, sunglasses, and more. I tried on some sunglasses and bought them for 250 Cordobas/roughly $8 USD. Another guy sold personalized keychains. They cost roughly $1.20 each.
Then, we found a vendor selling fried plantains called tajadas. They were a crunchy, light snack, and were very delicious! They’re crispy because they’re so thin!
From there, my guide Carlos from Visit Nicaragua and I followed the boardwalk, which turns into a restaurant strip with some vendors mixed in.
I met a vendor selling some beautiful wood-carved souvenirs, including turtle keychains. I bought one and then played a street game before heading to El Buen Gusto, a gorgeous open-air restaurant on the beach with high ceilings.
In the kitchen, I watched them fry fish and chicken wings. They batter the red snapper in corn flour. They also sell shrimp cocktail with tajadas. They serve the fish whole with tostones, rice, and tajadas.
The shrimp cocktail was fresh and succulent, and came in a nice tomato sauce. It was a little spicy!
The view we had from the restaurant was amazing. We were looking out over the beach. I loved it. There were hotels and restaurants in the area. We could also see a large Christ statue atop a hill across the water!
Then, we put some salsa on top of the snapper. I loved the head, which was so full of meat. The eyes, especially, are really good. The meat was really sweet and extremely tasty!
The tostones were also really nice with the salsa and a bit of the fish. It was a marriage made in heaven! Then, we flipped the fish over and added salsa to it, too!
There was so much meat in the fish, it was unreal! There are lots of great beaches in Nicaragua, including some amazing ones for surfing!
After eating, we explored more. We passed vendors selling ceramics, hats, pupusas, sunglasses, and even paintings! The paintings were amazing and super colorful.
I could see paintings of Marilyn Monroe, sunsets, landscapes, and even some sea turtles! Further on, we found a guy selling swimwear and another selling large Panama hats!
Then, after seeing a large sculpture of a sea turtle, we drove through some wealthy neighborhoods to Jesús de la Divina Misericordia statue. After 10 minutes, we arrived and climbed some steps to the top.
It costs 36 Cordobas/$1 USD for locals and 72 Cordobas/$2 USD for foreigners to visit. The view of the Pacific coast is amazing from there. There’s a balcony that looks over the entire bay and city. It’s stunning!
There’s a platform a little higher up around the base of the statue. The view is unparalleled!

Nicaragua is absolutely beautiful!! And very little known. Thank you David for showcasing this gem of a country.
Currently under a corrupt criminal dictatorship!!
Another beautiful video of Nicaragua. The beaches , friendly hard working people... so much natural beauty to see. David I like how you always try to support the locals....Thanks as always and wish you and your family everything good.
David should be named The President of Tourism for the world
Yes he is doing so much to highlight lesser known countries that many of us were never even aware of.
Agree

Bello San Juan del Sur
fresh ingredients the best 👌
Que ricura. No puedo. Ver esos son crujientes y que gente trabajadoras. Entodo y sevenden
David: do you think you would have enjoyed that food sitting in a fine dining restaurant (I know you don't like fine dining). I guess not. Glad to see Carlos really eating and enjoying the food as well. He is such a great host because he gives David the time and space to do his work. Such a nice gentleman too. So much history on Nicaragua. Great job 👍 as usual. By the way, I know you are in Barbados right now, so how are you enjoying it and have you had the flying fish yet😄😄😄? Stay safe.🙏😇
In Barbados? So his videos are days delayed? 🤨
@@jhennessyde-la-fuente7193 yeah. He travelled to Barbados last Wednesday this week. He posted the latest one in Nicaragua today.🇹🇹🇨🇦
@@JudyT868 ...Oh good to know, thanks!
@@jhennessyde-la-fuente7193 : You are quite welcome. He did his last live on Wednesday and said he was heading to the airport to catch a flight to Barbados. He also mentioned Grenada, St. Vincent and I think there were two other islands as well. We will just have to wait and see. In the meantime he has been posting the ones in Nicaragua. Enjoy.🇹🇹🇨🇦. Check out Davidsbeenhere live on TH-cam and you will see him in Barbados in front of a gate by a building.
@@jhennessyde-la-fuente7193 Nicaragua trip was back in April.
It's a hidden gem of the Americas ❤
Las tajadas son ricas con salsas verdes! Saludos desde Culebra, PR

That’s friendship share the food 🍱
Belleza de Nicaragua san juan del sur
Having lots of fun watching. Thanks 🌼
God bless ❤❤❤❤ CentroAmerica
You are making me hungry!
Glad you are visiting the 'good places of Nicaragua' but Nicaragua is divided in three zones, the ''pacific coast'' where all the tourist go to visit, to videotape, to enjoy the food, the beauty of the pacific coast beaches, and more, and the only place the government has put some money on it to repair and add some highways for obvious reasons. Then is the ''central part'' of the country, nice whether , well keep, home of the cattle ranchers, maybe you can find some family ancestors because there is people that has your own last name 😉 . And then come the most neglected zone of the country...the ''Atlantic coast'' where you can find tribes that spoke different dialects, and the big town of Bluefields where you can speak Creole English , eat gallopinto made with coconut milk, the must to eat "RONDON" , and off course beautiful Caribbean beaches, but you will feel that you are in a poor Caribbean island not in Nicaragua. I would like you to visit this part of the country and make a video of it, seems like no tourist, no blogger or youtuber knows about it. I would challenge you to drive thru the muddy roads, take the ferry, don't take the little airplane, to get to poor towns like SIUNA, PUERTO CABEZAS, and WASLALA!....Enjoy it.
Afortunadamente ya se están construyendo carreteras para facilitar el acceso a esas zonas, al parecer dentro de poco le cae su buena inversión a la costa Atlántida, merecida para esa gente trabajadora.
Por cierto, la última vez que comí Rondon me durmió por como 5 horas 😅😅
@@TP-qb3kb ...Jajajaja seguro a la sopita le pusieron su piquetito para que te relajara...jajaja.... Pues ya va siendo hora que la familia duena del país invierta en la costa Atlántica, no les ha caido el veinte que esa zona es la mas bonita con sus playas azules, y arena blanca. Donde crees que esta el turismo de lujo? Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Roatan, Punta Cana, Barbados, Trinidad y Tobago...todas esas playas se encuentran donde? Sobre la costa Atlantica o mar Caribe!
@@TP-qb3kb Que buenas noticias. Surely it will be easier to invest and build up the Atlantic coast. Bluefields and Puerto Cabezas have much potential.
Thank you for the video. The snapper meal looked really good which had my mouth watering... lol How much was the mea?
Yes please go to corn island i am planning to go there i havent been in my country for over 30 yrs!
❤🎉 0:18
I met my love of my life in Nicaragua ❤
I miss my other half. Im literally half Nicaraguan and went only twoce at age 12 and 15 lol
I am 32 now
The collaboration is right on point. Very nice channel you have.
Wow ! How long will you be there ????
It doesn't need anything else but lime, salad y tostones
Hello from Long beach ca.
Nicaraguan food is underrated and alot of its dishes copied or straight out stolen. Like tres leches cake made in Nicaragua and now everyone has a claim to it. You missed lots more good food and deff gotta go back for the corn islands.
@@djrafacontigotop1019 👍💪🇳🇮 100 % truth
Pues tu estas mal informado ya que todavía no se sabe si el tres leche es de nicaragua o de México. Pero yo te digo que es 💯?nicaraguense, y eso qué nicaragua copia las comidas, déjame decirte que todo el mundo lo hace, pero más vien otros países copian la comida nicaraguense porque es una de las mejores del mundo. dicho por los mismos turistas😂😅😊😊😊
Viva Nicaragua 🇳🇮

DAVID LOVE FROM MEGHALAYA, INDIA 👍👍👍👍

Bro I’m sorry to say but you missed the absolute best place to eat there. There’s an inside market that serves a meal called pescado jalapeño.. delicious
Hello David..
❤❤❤
Nice!
David when are going to cuba 🇨🇺
I love 👌😋😋😋
Incredible video of how beautiful Nicaragua is (people, food and tourist places) but why do the police follow you? I don't understand 🤦♂️
I think his visit was ushered by the Ministry of Tourism, I think the guide Carlos works for a government owned TV station so they have police escort, I saw the same in another video with Carlos as the guide for another TH-camr.
M here because of miss universe winner❤
Bro make videos on Indian food we are missing
Good deal at $1.20 when made for $.10
40cents or dollars
Im buying a land in San Juan so we can build up our retirement home with the ocean view. Looking for options in Mexico as well. We want to retire young at 50..
Where is this town nica
Hi David I just talk my mam she move back this past ml ace I Piedra Qemada they don't have water they way mdnite get water m sorry
Dommage que tu portes le maillot du PSG
I always look for property there, but the government is so nuts, I can't commit to the investment.
Its a federal crime to watch food vlogs on an empty stomach
😂
Muy caras esas gafas su precio son 150
Carlos tienes mucho que aprender, con todo mis respectos
The food looks tasty 😋, Damn those cops are like cockroaches. LOL
صانع المحتوا مختال
It doesn't look good to have eaten same plate.
Esa policia no te deja solo papi?
Por eso solo va a los lugares turisticos donde los turistas dejan los dolares que tanto quiere el dictador, deberia de visitar lugares comunes para que la gente vea la otra cara de la moneda!
Ese aceyte parece q lo an repetido varios dias sean serio y es mejor hacer la salsa de chile cabro no sean boludas
Nope
The sharing of the food is off putting. I also don’t think he should have had to pay his own way after climbing all them steps.. just saying.
صانع المحتوى محتال
Es feo comer del mismo plato, deberían poner uno por persona
Bro half the video is you stuffing your face with food and making disgusting mmmmm sounds from your mouth! No one wants to see that! Show the food, talk about it and eat it on your own time. Talk about the town more
And just how do you propose getting there? Since the protests if 2018 the government has taken extremely repressive measures to silence opponents and made travel there by north americans next tio impossible. I'm all for supporting the Nicaraguan people but get real man. They just arrested the cardinal of Matagalpa for "spiritual sins".
because America keeps meddling with NGOs so they carefully scrutinize Americans the most and when it comes to the cardinal one less child molester in my view
You missed most of that main beach road with all the restaurants, missed gringo street. So much
