Bluefields has two universities. BICU (Bluefields Indian and Caribbean University) is near the center of town with a nice restaurant close by which has quite a view across Bluefields Bay. A short boat ride from downtown Bluefields across the bay is El Bluff, visible in the distance in this photo...a gateway to the Caribbean.
The head of the canal has also been cleared along the south side. When you reach the end of the canal you now have a much wider view of the beach line. This also helps to bring a bit of the beach breeze down to the pier so its not a muggy while loading and unloading the boats.
To the Beach
Bluefields is a fun town to be based out of. There are a lot of fun things to do and great places to go. Unfortunately the beach is across the bay so you have to boat out to enjoy a good beach day. Totally worth it even on a choppy day!
