Visit The Hacienda Iguana Nicaragua

By Lana Bray


If you are planning a trip to South America then Hacienda Iguana Nicaragua is the place for you. It is located right on the beach, which is perfect if you love to surf or if you just want to laze around gazing at the surf with attentive bar staff nearby to keep you refreshed. There is also a golf course right outside the front door.

The iguana is a type of grass-eating lizard common to Mexico and Central America. It is a member of the family Iguanidae. From the tip of its nose to the end of its tail, the lizard stands four to six feet long. It has a row of spines along its back; this is called a dewlap. It also has a third eye, known as a parietal eye.

The parietal eye is like the eye in that it is composed of nervous tissue and reacts to light. It contains a lens and a retina. Its mechanism for responding to light is different from that of the retina in the mammalian eye. Other animals that possess a parietal eye are tuna, sharks and frogs. Fossil evidence indicates that this structure was present in other, now extinct, animals including some types of dinosaur.

One of the countries where this particular member of the Iguanidae clan is found is in Nicaragua, in Central America. Located on the Isthmus of Central America, the tiny country is bounded to the south by Costa Rica and by Honduras on its northern side. Plans are being made to construct a massive canal, far bigger and grander than the one at Panama, in this country. It will most likely be financed by sources in China.

The country sits neatly within the tropics between 11 and 14 degrees north of the equator. The equator is a make-believe line of latitude that separates the northern hemisphere from the southern hemisphere. The tropics is an area bounded by lines of latitude 23.4 degrees north and south of the equator.

The tropics are defined by the Tropic of Cancer to the north and the Tropic of Capricorn to the south. This area is a magnet for tourists every year because of its amazingly wonderful climate. All year round, the temperature remains higher than 64 deg Fahrenheit.

A film with the name of one of the family Iguanidae in 1964 was based on the play written by Tennessee Williams. It starred Ava Gardner, Richard Burton and Deborah Kerr. Actress Grayson Hall received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. She went on to become a central character in the cult soap opera, Dark Shadows. No representatives of the Iguanidae family were injured in this film and it was not located in hacienda iguana nicaragua.

Hacienda iguana nicaragua is a place on the Isthmus of Central America. It is located comfortably within the regions bounded by the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. The next time you visit hacienda iguana nicaragua, be on the lookout for this charming reptile. If you are a fan of golf, surfing or just relaxing on the beach, be sure to check out hacienda iguana nicaragua.
