The waves were good but we had a nice rain right at mid tide and once the rain was gone the waves stayed kind of messy.

It was hard to find barrels with these conditions but it’s Colorado so, there’s always a chance no matter the conditions, or the tide, or the size, or the swell direction, or the wind direction!

When there are not so many barrels, then you go for the big walls and big sprays.

Right after the rain the water was glassy but not for long beacuse of the wind picked up a little.

Say hi to Paula, one of the few Uruguayans living in Nicaragua… can anyone guess why she picked Iguana as her permanent address?

Besides the amazing waves we all want to be inside of here at Colorado, what makes it really special is the tight community that lives inside Hacienda Iguana. You can feel it and experience it every afternoon at the beach club, come see it by yourself any time!

And of course, the possibility of surfing without crowds any random day makes it a top spot to live (or just visit).

Que onda mi gente?? Bri back with your Tuesday surf report. I’m gonna be upfront… today was a bit of one of those shockers… I mean it looked good from the beach, but between the lulls, inconsistency and straight up closeouts, after watching it for about 45 min to hour, I decided to go ahead..

Happy Sunday Funday from Nicaragua! Wow, what an incredible day of waves. The surf was pumping pretty much the entire day. Very little lulls, if any, with perfect lefts and rights from sun-up to sun-down. Just another great Sunday Funday…. check it out!
