PLAYA COLORADO
Welcome all on this beautiful Thursday morning and first day of Passover. Let us feast on some wave pics.
Starting right off the bat with a mystery surfer barrel shot. Hmmm.. who was out on the bright yellow board this morning?Answer – scroll through to find out
There have only been a handful of surfers max out at any given time this season as the health crisis has shut down most travel. Needless to say the locals are getting so many waves that inevitably there are a few every session that go untapped.
Buzz making sure there aren’t too many of those untapped waves out there.
John is another local guy that can be counted on to be out nice and early for the dawn patrol session, pulling into set waves out the back like the experienced surfer he is.
Buzz and John were trading takeoffs with eachother for about an hour or so this morning before the tide started getting a bit low.
It’s such a blessing to have an open beach to enjoy, I wouldn’t have believed you a month ago if you told me that the beach here would be one of the few open to enjoy in the world.
Yet it is one of the few open to enjoy, and as such the opportunity is not being spoiled by those of us lucky enough to call this beautiful place home.
When the bigger swells come through they really do a nice job to set the sandbar up and the result is beautiful peelers.
I’ve been living down here for a bit over a month now and the consistency of the waves has really been something. Can you believe that the season is just starting? So Psyched
Almost as Psyched as this family taking the baby down to the beach for his first little baby steps. Way to go Grom!! Soon he’ll be cross-stepping to the nose and hanging those toes.
I cruised down to the other side of the beach after seeing some white caps from the distance. So nice when there are more waves in the set then are surfers in the lineup.
Rob was one of the three guys out at Panga for the morning session. Need something to watch in quarantine today.. how about the classic 80’s film “¡Three Amigos!”
Jeff is another local guy getting his wave quota fulfilled for the day.
Thanks for stopping by for the daily surf report, time to hit the path back home and get some of those housekeeping chores done. Oh who am I kidding, it’s time to hit the golf course and work on breaking 80!! Make sure to swing by (no pun intended) and see what gemsBrian Scott@nicasurfshotsis able to procure for your Good Friday viewing pleasure. YeeeewMystery Surfer reveal:Ryan Cook
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
Welcome to the Tuesday surf report everybody! It was another beautiful day down at the beach. The new swell wasn’t really coming in yet, but then again it was low tide, so things could be changing once we see more water over the sand and reef.
Happy Monday everyone! After having a weird Sunday with light onshore yesterday, today definitely counts as a “happy” Monday because the offshore is back as usual.
Hola amigos & welcome back for the Sunday Funday edition surf report from sunny Nicaragua. Today we had some small to medium size surf with some bigger set coming through every now & then and some gusty to light off shores blowing throughout the day.
