 Pochomil is the beach closest to Nicaragua's Capital city of Managua. While this beach is almost desert during the week, it gets very crowded with people, especially from Managua, during the weekends. The beach is wide and the water is great for swimming. As a tourist resort, a toll is required in order to go in.
Winds normally blow offshore on the Nicaraguan Pacific Coast, creating dangerous windsurfing conditions, Pochomil's winds usually blow in a side-shore-to-side-off-from-the-left direction due to the Crucero Mountain Range, making ocean sailing safer.
In all the restaurants of Pochomil an excellent fish soup may be tasted.
