Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hey everyone, Brian here, bringing the report to you this Sunday afternoon. Another fun day of surf, with waves coming in at waist to shoulder high and some head high sets occasionally rolling through. The conditions were nice with steady offshore winds and sunny skies, with peaks coming in everywhere! Check it out!
The crowd was out early again this morning, trying to get their shacks in before the late crowd. With peaks like this coming in I can see why!
“Look mom, it’s Superman!” Not quite, it’s Mike from Nicawaves going anti-gravity on a speedy section.
Between the patches of sun and clouds the water color was looking pretty nice, but the temperature had definitely dropped. Check out this guy with a nice floater section.
Seemed like everyone in the neighborhood was in the water this morning, here’s Phillip drawing a line on a nice little left-hander.
This is one of those moments when the sun came out at the right time. Mike pulling into view again on a dredging right.
A few empty waves slipped through the cracks. Nicaraguan mini-keg.
First peak had it’s moments today as well, and Jefro was caught in time on one of those moments. Maybe this was just one of his vivid dreams.
Just another lucky traveler about to get his first taste of a Nicaraguan dirty barrel.
No shortage of local talent here this morning, Julito with a sweet, “Nica man fan”.
Monchito , back out today and getting lucky with a heaving, emerald right-hander. Yew!
Secret, left point break…..? Well, that’s it for today folks. Hope you got your fill of stoke from today’s report. If not, go surf! See you tomorrow. Adios amigos!
RECENT REPORTS
Howdy everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves surprised to the upside today. It was slightly larger than I was expecting, and there were hour plus long windows where the wind dropped out.
Hola amigos! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The tide was a bit lower by the time I got around to shooting today, so there was more action at mid-peak than the side-peaks. The wind was stronger today, but it was a little bigger today too.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops, once again we’re talking French Fries. The waves were smaller today, but the shape was arguably slightly better than yesterday. The wind was also a touch lighter.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
We would like to say thank you to all our viewers and past guests for helping us give back to the locals here in Nicaragua. In 2010, we collected nearly 1,000 clothing items for the community of La Chureca and we came close to matching that number last year in school supply donations for the..
Lots of water was moving around this morning and the currents were pretty strong, so it was very hard to find the spot to pick up some of the better ones. This is Carlitos Caliente dropping into a nice sized right hander. This wave was easily double over head and Carlitos was charging.
Welcome to our daily surf report. We are Lucha and Miguel bringing you all the action we had on the beach straight to your computers. The waves were still pretty small but it was super fun to paddle out on the big pangas. It was running about waist to chest high on sets with strong..
