Somewhere in Nicaragua
Man, this has been a good swell. We’ve still got some waves today out here at Playa Santana. It’s about head high on sets, offshore and barreling. The fun factor doesn’t get much higher than this. Here is a view of the lineup.
You can come stay with us at the NSR Casita and this wave is a two minute walk from your front door.
We’ve got a slowly fading swell for the next day or two and then it looks like another fun pulse on the way.
We’ve also got a report in from Roberto at Maderas today who says it’s smaller but still fun. The water got a bit colder too so it’s nice to wear a warm top if you’ve got one – otherwise you aren’t staying out too long.
Here’s a good contrast on wave size at different beaches during the same day. It actually looks like Maderas is picking up a tad more of this swell. This is Josh from Ft. Lauderdale picking off a nice left hander.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos. Welcome to Thursday’s late morning report from Colorados. It was clean this AM, but notably smaller. The sets still had enough size to offer up tubitos.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Wednesday was a let down compared to what was forecasted. It was not 4ft @ 16 sec as projected by Surf-lie haha. The sets were good when they came, but there was one quality set every 20 minutes roughly. It was a waiting..
Hello Tuesday, I checked Colorado in the morning hoping the new swell was going to be showing, but didn’t see much happening yet. So decided to check Panga drops up the beach our local swell magnet. @tonyzphotos reporting.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
We still have swell. It’s running head high and consistent with offshore winds. Roque, hitting the eject button
