Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hi everyone. Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The wind was ripping today, but the swell finally started to show up at sunset. Not many surfers wanted anything to do with the wind I guess.
It was a good day to stretch out, go for a jog, play some golf or pickle-ball, or get a lift in before the swell fills in more tomorrow.
Here’s an I-SPY question for you: Find a one meter square where you don’t see any wind chop haha.
Even though it was windy, there were still a couple of barrels out there. Patience is necessary though!
Spot X showing a flicker of life. It wasn’t really working there today though.
I came back a little later in the afternoon in the hopes of getting some photo content of actual surfers. Unfortunately, there were still basically no surfers out.
There were two guys out, but they didn’t get many waves out there. In fact only one of the gentlemen got a wave in 15 minutes.
And here it is! Cruising down the line on an insider left. One is better than none!
Sets like this left began to roll through more and more consistently at sunset. I think tomorrow it could be on like Donkey Kong.
Woah! A pretty mental drainer up the beach at Villas Iguanas. It’s a mirage though, not real haha. Anyways, that wraps up today’s action. I expect the surf to be meaningfully better tomorrow and plenty of shredders out to document. Thanks for checking in and have a good one.

FROM THE ARCHIVES
Welcome back friends! The winds were the star of the show today, waves were in the 3-4+ range and the crowds were at an all time low with 2 people out at both breaks.
Happy Monday folks! Been hearing through the grapevine that the late afternoon sessions have been pretty epic. So with some other morning and midday stuff going on, I decided to trigger for that afternoon golden hour sesh that people were talking about… so let’s step on in and compare from the last few days middays..
Welcome back & Happy Sunday Funday for the last day of a pretty fun filled weekend! Once again it was that last afternoon call, with the higher tide and somehow that magical increase in wave size with the raising water. The fish have been popping off too! So I think it’s safe to say everyone..
