    Resum:
    This descriptive research, with a qualitative approach, was conducted to design a proposal to implement accessibility practices in the Biosphere Reserve Ometepe Island, by analyzing its potential as a major tourist destination in Nicaragua. The inductive method was applied to analyze the theory collected, through which it was possible to establish a framework in which the Accessible Tourism and its implications were defined, as well as the set of regulations governing the general level and specific level of protected areas, and initiatives that have implemented accessibility measures were identified. With this, it was possible to create the basis to design the Accessible Tourism development proposal on the island, starting with a certification model that strengthens the managing of accessibility in the Island; and concluding with the identification of sites of interest that have potential for practical implementation of accessibility.
