Lagoon on the east coast of Nicaragua

Bluefields Lagoon (also known as Bluefields Harbour and Hone Sound) is a broad coastal inlet situated on the Mosquito Coast.[1][2] The lagoon is notably irregular in form, its southern reaches being heavily subdivided by numerous mangrove islands that render its exact dimensions variable. The Bluefields River empties into the lagoon.[3] Bluefields Lagoon lies approximately seven leagues south of Pearl Cay Lagoon.[4][5]
