Ecocanal is a proposed low-draft waterway to connect Lake Nicaragua to the Caribbean Sea, using the San Juan River. The proposed project would primarily be used to carry containerized and bulk cargo through the Central American isthmus. This route was first used during the California Gold rush to transport passengers from the U.S. East Coast to the West Coast. More than 100,000 people used this pathway in the second half of the 1800s.
