Big Corn Island is the kind of place you hesitate to tell people about. There are no unsightly high-rise hotels, no crowded beaches, and very few cars. In short, this idyllic patch of white sand and greenery languishing in crystalline waters some 80 kilometers (50 miles) off the east coast of Nicaragua is everything a Caribbean hideaway should be: uncomplicated, laid-back, and affordable. But perhaps the best thing about Big Corn Island is that the locals seem intent on keeping commercialism and mass tourism at bay, so the chances of this authentic tropical getaway becoming the next Cancun are remote.
