Telica är en 1 061 meter hög stratovulkan i den vulkaniska bergskedjan Cordillera Los Maribios i västra Nicaragua. Den ligger i kommunen Telica. Telica är en av Nicaraguas mest aktiva vulkaner och den hade sitt senaste utbrott i maj 2016, med lavaflöde samt gas och aska som slungades 600 meter upp i luften. Vid vulkanens fot ligger varmvattenkällorna i San Jacinto, samt ett geotermiskt kraftverk.[1][2]

Telica volcano, seen here from the León-Chinandega highway, is one of a group of interlocking cones and vents along a NW trend. The summit of Telica, which is one of Nicaragua's most active volcanoes, is unvegetated, and deep erosional gulleys have been dissected into the lower flanks of the cone. Frequent historical eruptions have been recorded at Telica since the 16th century.
