Before we get down to business in the report, make sure you block off your Saturday night. At the office, we are busy preparing to make sure y’all have a good time. I know Armando said there would be 100 girls but that’s just because he doesn’t know to as many as I do… there will be at least 200!!

I wanted to check out our northern break and see what was going on there. I got there just in time for a nice set!

We had some solid wind gusts today but that’s not a problem when it’s straight offshore! It just makes the barrels even more hollow.

He scored that wave for 100+ yards, found a nice tube, and ripped the face… lucky guy! I have your entire sequence if you want it:[email protected].

I walked south to see what the conditions were doing there. With the low tide, the barrels were pumping. Keep scrolling down!

The offshores make the late drop a little easier. However, you still get a great thrill pulling in!

But keep your speed up so you can punch through the last section. In order to brag to your friends, you need to make it out!

Simon paddled out again. I don’t know why he uses face zink when he has been in the barrel for the last three days??

I know the tide is lower but clean up sets still roll through. Be careful (for your board’s sake too!) when you’re sitting inside.

There was a smaller peak a little north that produced solid rights. Seems like this guy already figured that out.

If you run out of those pesky little travel shampoo bottles, just hop in the water around low tide like this surfer.

I understand that I’m biased but we have some of the prettiest water in Nicaragua! It doesn’t look too shabby either when you’re in one of our tubes looking out.

The water looks beautiful even when you blow your tail off the wave and throw the water around. Yeww!

Since we have a sand bottom, it frequently gets sucked up into the wave. I don’t think this guy is complaining though…

With the tide turning around, the size will build. You will probably find more stand up tubes like this one!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great Fourth! Saturday’s report is coming your way from Colorados as per usual. It was smaller today, but very shreddable. Still a few tubitos too.

Happy 4th of July! The size of the surf dropped notably today. There were still good sets, but patience was key (again). Hard to believe there were no takers on this one!

Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. I saw some of the biggest sets of the year today. There were epic moments, but it was still a bit slow between the high quality waves.

Hi and welcome to your Tuesday surf report.  We’ve got the NSR family here with a quick update from this morning.  We woke up super early and made it to the action and it wasn’t exactly what we were expecting but we are not complaining.  Some fun head high waves were rolling in still, winds..

Hola amigos, we woke up to some overcast skies and light offshore winds. The swell dropped a bit, but there were still some fun ones to be had! Check it out…

Hola amigos, Lucha Libre Garcia and Eric Chicken de Pollo here with your Sunday surf report.  We took over the reef today and it did pay off.  There were some sweet mini bumps rolling in and we were there to immortalize it for ever.  Well over head sets, sick offshore winds and nice water temperature. ..
