Driving around Corn Island

No international rental company lists an office on the Corn Islands, and Dollar says its roadside assistance does not cover the Caribbean regions. Rentals are arranged locally: ask your hotel. A golf cart or motorbike is enough for Big Corn’s ring road.

Around Corn Island the dry season runs from February to April and the rains from May to January. Dirt roads to beaches, farms and villages are easiest in the dry months; in the rainy season some get muddy or flood after storms, which is when a 4x4 or higher-clearance vehicle earns its price.
