Altagracia () is a municipality in the Rivas Department of Nicaragua.
It is the largest town on the island of Ometepe, above the town of Moyogalpa. Its original name was Astagalpa, meaning ‘house of the herons’ in Nahuatl. This city also has a ferry port, Puerto de Gracia, that services Granada and San Carlos near the Rio San Juan. However, due to seasonal water level fluctuations, this port and the nightly ferry crossings are often seasonally cancelled.
