Nickle Tour: The only reason to go to Big Corn Island is to pass through on your way to Little Corn Island. Seriously, there is nothing to do and no real infrastructure for tourists. **Unless**, you stop by Corn Island Finca to see Kevin, an expat from Oklahoma who is 3 years into creating a farm. Even Kevin will tell you to move on.

Travel Tip:
When you buy your plane ticket to the Corn Islands, you get a 30-day open-ended ticket back to Managua. Reserve your flight back – even if you have to change it – or you’ll be flying standby and may have to stay over in Big Corn, ugg.
And, if you’re walking across the island, consider waiting until the planes have flown their morning or afternoon flights and they’ll open up the runway for you – a practical boulevard!

Eat: Cook with Kevin – all restuarants have bad service and the food is meh
