Public and Private Transportation Options

Public transportation: Granada, San Juan del Sur and Peñas Blancas have buses available to bring you to Rivas. From Rivas, an additional taxi ride is necessary to bring you down to the dock at San Jorge. Ferries depart from San Jorge on a regular basis for Ometepe Island. Patience is good to bring with you as the bus rides take time, Managua about 2 ½ hours, Granada around 1 ½ hours and Peñas Blancas and San Juan del Sur a little less than an hour. You can also take a taxi directly to the port at San Jorge.
