It sits 240 kilometres southeast of Managua, the national capital of Nicaragua.

Spend a leisurely day at Reserva Privada El Quebracho. It sits just 14 kilometres out of El Castillo. Inhale the fresh, clean air and take some time to simply slow down.

Looking for some other close-by localities? Sabalos is about 15 kilometres to the west, so get in the car and start exploring! Alternatively, Indio Maiz Biological Reserve, 30 kilometres east of El Castillo, is also worth the journey.

La Fortuna is located 70 kilometres away from El Castillo and is an exciting part of the local region. Close by attractions include Baldi Hot Springs, La Fortuna Waterfall and Los Lagos Hot Springs. Still got time to kill? Ecotermales Fortuna and Termales Los Laureles are also within easy reach.

'There is no love sincerer than the love of food,' according to George Bernard Shaw, but add travel to the mix and it's a marriage made in heaven. You're invited to merge your two greatest loves by eating and drinking your way through Rio San Juan.

A traditional ingredient in the food here is beans. Another is salad. They're worth getting a taste for if you're not already a fan.

Are you on the hunt for a classic El Castillo eating experience? There are some specialties to keep an eye out for, such as vigorón (cabbage salad) and tortillas.

A meal is never truly complete without dessert, so quit counting calories for a while and indulge in one of the most lip-smacking sweet treats, pio quinto (rum-drenched cake).

If you truly want to see the big pitcher, grab the hopportunity to toss back a beer. Schooner rather than later! Terrible beer puns aside, make sure you order Premium, one of the most popular local brews.

Heard of vodka? It's a sensational way to jumpstart your night out in Rio San Juan. Ask the bar person for a taste and then order up a shot or two!

Try to impress your hosts by memorising a handful of expressions in the local language. First off the bat, try to get your mouth around 'Buenos días'. This means 'good morning'. One more often used phrase is '¿Cuánto cuesta? ' ('how much is this?').

If you're lucky enough to be in El Castillo on the 15th of September, get ready to party! Independence Day sees crowds of locals getting out and about and celebrating.

When it comes time to pack up your belongings, spend the last of your holiday allowance and say one last "Hasta la vista" to El Castillo.

When you're ready to fly home, allow yourself enough time to reach Barra del Colorado Airport (BCL). Situated 85 kilometres to the east from the middle of El Castillo, this is the nearest terminal.
