PLAYA SANTANA
Hello everyone! This is Baldo again from Santana beach. The swell arrived today but it’s still onshore. It was kinda choppy and closing out but still some fun ones came through.
With the onshore winds the humidity levels go to the roof, everything is sticky and you don’t stop sweating. I just want to be in front of the A/C! But I guess some people want to make the best of it by going for a morning run.
After a while in the sun I took a 1 hour break, and when I got back I found a better (shady) location with this bird comfortable under this coconut tree. It is called Zanate, it’s the most common bird in Nicaragua.
It was steep and fast but this guy had it all dialed up. He was going just for the biggest waves on each set.
Look at him going full speed on a bottom turn. I don’t understand how he didn’t loose control of the board!
After the big drop you ended up with a lot of speed that, with a good bottom turn, could lead you to have a good turn on the shoulder.
Super late drop on a set wave. This guy is a charger!
And what do you do after a good first surf session in Nicaragua? Relax and enjoy the view from your vacation rental’s infinity pool.Check out this property, you can comfortable fit up to 12 people, right above Rosada beach!
Check out tomorrow to see how the waves behave with this swell. Saludos!
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.
