Somewhere in Nicaragua
Well, it’s Saturday and we are waiting for the big swell that’s supposed to start hitting tomorrow. In the meantime, we are surfing the remnants of this last swell – still solid overhead. It’s been drizzling lightly all day, but the wind has been offshore. Check this out – we documented our very first NSR Beach House guests who arrived by panga…in the rain…with all their bags…from San Juan Del Sur. The captain was solid. He navigated all the way to the beach in between sets, unloaded and then took off into the mist. Good stuff.
Check out the set waves that were coming in today. The rights were firing! (See the little heads in the lower right?) The boat captain was ballsy.
This is his older brother Matt – fresh off the plane and in the water for the afternoon session.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The swell was notably stronger than I expected. Some early season Pacific power! Middle peak was the place to be, but it was windy.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.
Hey amigos! Welcome to March 1st’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were really fun in the late morning and early afternoon. The wind direction was perfect, but then flipped side-shore right as I went to grab my board haha.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Oh yeah, Hot Carl and Zman in the house and we went looking for waves. We found some fun ones at Colorado this morning. It was head high and glassy before the onshores came up at about 9:30am (damn!)
