Corinto - Shore Services
Communications
The town’s only internet café, “Corinto Online” is located one block up from the park.
Long distance phone calls can be made from the ENITEL building across the street from the Port Captain/Immigration office. The Postal services are in the same building.
Banks
There are two banks in Corinto. Ban Pro and Bancentro, both give advances on VISA and MasterCard.
Provisions
Most goods and services are located within walking distance of the park. For a greater selection of supplies, Chinendega is 35 minutes away by bus (20 minutes by taxi) from Corinto, over paved roads.
In Corinto, provisioning can be done at Haitham’s Supermercado. Here you will find a reasonable selection of canned foods, pastas, spices, frozen chicken and a wide assortment of beer and beverages. Farmacia Principal around the corner is well stocked with pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, appliances and trinkets. Farmacia Principal also provides a photocopy service.
Transport & Travel
If you should need a taxi, ask around for English speaking Walter Gomez. Walter is a young gentle giant of a man, born in Nicaragua but lived in the USA for many years. If you need a driver or interpreter, Walter is the man. His cell number is: 3422765 or 3422601.
The Barrio Los Pescadores and Barrio El Chorizo areas of the city are best avoided by all except the hardiest sailors after dark, otherwise most areas are clean and safe to walk around.
