HISTORY OF OMETEPE ISLAND | & the Pirates of Lake Nicaragua (8 Minutes)

With real photos and narration, we show you the history of Ometepe Island, and the pirates that plundered Lake Nicaragua. We start at the petroglyphs and findings from 2000 BC, then fast forward to the 16th century, when pirates such as Henry Morgan, sailed up the San Juan River and captured the city of Granada. Then to the battle at the Fortress of the Immaculate Conception, and later to the 19th century where William Walker took over Nicaragua and claimed himself president. Get ready to go back in time.
