It is located 140 kilometres (87 mi) south of Managua. San Juan del Sur is popular among surfers and is a vacation spot for many Nicaraguan families and foreign tourists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Its population is approximately 15,553, consisting largely of families engaged in fishing or the tourism industry and foreigners from the United States, Canada and Europe. While the local economy was, for many years, based on fishing and shipping, it has shifted towards tourism in the last 20 years. In October 2002, to mark the city&rsquo;s 150th anniversary, it was formally designated the Port of San Juan del Sur and a Tourism City of Nicaragua.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid__item one-whole portable--auto lap--auto palm--auto top-no-padding bottom-large-padding \">\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid__item three-twelfths portable--auto lap--half-twelfth palm--hide top-no-padding bottom-no-padding \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"grid__item two-twelfths portable--auto lap--four-twelfths palm--auto top-no-padding bottom-no-padding no-list-style \">\n<h5 class=\"small-text\"><span class=\"weight_medium\" style=\"color: #c9c9c9;\">Surf Camps<\/span><\/h5>\n<ul class=\"small-text\">\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Medina Surf<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Surf &amp; Chill<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Mr. Juan del Sur<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Beds, Jazz &amp; Surf<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">La Culebra<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Kentuki<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Nica Style<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid__item one-twelfth portable--auto lap--hide palm--auto top-no-padding bottom-no-padding \"><\/div>\n<div class=\"grid__item three-twelfths portable--five-twelfths lap--seven-twelfths palm--auto top-no-padding bottom-no-padding \">\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1 weight_bold\">Exotic Playas<\/span><\/h4>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">San Juan del Sur, set beside a crescent-shaped bay, was a popular resting place for gold prospectors headed to California in the 1850s.
