Ometepe Island | Nicaragua




Postcard
Ometepe is an island located in the middle of Lake Nicaragua, the second largest lake in Latin America.

Its name means ‘two mountains’ in the native language. The island is home to two volcanoes: Maderas and Concepción. The latter is an active stratovolcano that erupted at least 25 times since 1883. 

Stamps
These six stamps with rainforest animals are part of a sheet of 20 stamp, issued 1991.

Thank you very much!
