Marijuana in Managua, Nicaragua – my experience

Howdy, go-getters My greetings to you in my long topic about my experience with weed in _CITY_ based on my adventures and the stories of local friends.

There is a well known fact that the laws according to the usage of marijuana differs from city to city. Based on that fact I’ve decided to write this article to let you know the rules of interaction with weed and hash in Managua , tell you about the police attention, possibility to find good hash, the price’s politics and all underwater rocks connected with the drugs in Managua.

My trip to Managua is over, these 10 days were perfect, so while memory is fresh I decided to write this post, who knows may be useful to someone. Being a regular cannabis smoker I could not imagine my stay in Managua without some daily joints. So from the very first day of my stay I started looking for weed…

Cannabis regulations in Managua, Nicaragua

It’s crucial to emphasize that cannabis, marijuana, and hashish are strictly prohibited in Managua. You won’t find coffee shops selling high-THC marijuana strains here. While medical CBD cannabis might be accessible through licensed dispensaries, it necessitates a doctor’s prescription, and it’s essential to note that CBD doesn’t produce psychoactive effects.

While at a club, I had the opportunity to meet Simon, who relocated to Managua three years ago and is well-versed in the local drug culture. According to Simon, despite the legal prohibition of cannabis, law enforcement officers generally adopt a lenient attitude towards marijuana, with some even being cannabis enthusiasts themselves.

What if I get caught with marijuana in Managua?

In fact, according to Simon – if you have less than 10g of weed or 5g of hash and behave correctly + do not smoke joints in public – nothing critical should happen. Cops will check if you are not intending to sell the stuff being a real dealer, they should just confiscate weed after a short talk.

People say sometimes police officers try to get some material benefits from catching you with weed in Managua. These stories are rare, but mind that some cops may force you giving them some money to leave you alone. But never try to offer them anything yourself, this may be treated as a separate crime. Easier just to watch your back not not get caught with weed in Managua.

How to get weed in Managua?

I did not need a dealer in Managua because I had Simon, anyway it was interesting for me how gears work in Managuain relation to cannabis.

High-level wholesale Managua dealers purchase weed and hash on the darknet websites. Usually these sites are about wholesale multi-kilo orders, but some also work with small amounts. So in fact this may be an option #1 for you – under the condition you know how to use darknet features of Tor browser and .onion sites + ready to wait 3-5 days for the delivery. If yes – you may find all the info about darknet websites on thehiddenwiki.com – darknet wikipedia.

If you are just having a short vacation or a trip to Managua – purchasing weed via wholesale darknet websites is not an option. Looking for dealers on the streets and in parks is still something you may do to find some weed in Managua, but more and more dealers are shifting to online orders done via messengers and payments in bitcoins instead of cash. This simply protects them from ever being caught by cops. Crypto payments are anonymous and delivery is done to selected location without any personal meetings, so both you and the dealer are secured from any possible consequences.

This was a surprise for me cause I am more old school and just “heard something about crypto”. While now all youngsters (who are usually a target group for cannabis dealers) have crypto wallets so dealers simply follow the trend. I think dealers are losing money anyway because not all clients know crypto, but Simon commented that nowadays if you do not use crypto – you 100% have a friend who uses it, so you may just send him money from card and he does crypto transaction for you. After that I remembered I also have such a friend, so I agreed with Simon.

Local attitude towards weed and cannabis in Managua

Although only medical cannabis is allowed in Managua, the locals are absolutely ok with the smokers. Local dealers have big cash from the students and tourists, so they are their weed target audiences in Managua. You shouldn’t allow yourself to smoke anywhere, for example in bars, but nobody is surprised if you get caught smoking weed in a secluded corner of the street.

One more interesting fact from my new friend Simon – even some cops in Managua prefer smoking weed over drinking strong. So as I understood Managua is a good place for smokers of marijuana because of the light atmosphere, but all the same the best rule is not to be caught with weed in Managua .

We were a little drunk already when Simon offered a joint of some noname sativa strain, of course I agreed. We were smoking not far from my hotel and it seems I saw other guys doing the same near another cornet So may say locals are not against weed, I saw this myself.

I liked the weed Simon shared, not the best one I’ve ever tried, but good enough. So I asked Simon to share contacts of his dealer, while he refused telling me his dealer works only with an old trusted set of clients. So I simply asked Simon if he could be my dealer during the nearest days – he agreed. I wish everyone to find his own Simon in Managua
