PLAYA COLORADO
Hola and welcome. We woke to a true dry season day down here in Tola, Nicaragua. Winds are strong offshore and there’s barely a cloud in the sky. The first spot we checked was just over knee high, pretty walled, and only had a couple takers.
So we moved up the beach to find waves easily twice the size with three peaks working and some really nice shape. We dig these wheels #auto-modus-operandi #sixseater….
The lineup was a little busier down this way, and while there were a couple short-boarders out there, longboards were the craft of choice for those looking to maximize their wave count.
Though if these strong winds get under your board all your drops will be late like this guy.
Finding trim……where you at Trin!
Speaking of style, showing up to the beach in your own amphibious panga is pretty tight, yo!
Not saying it was barreling but that didn’t stop this guy from hunting one.
Not a lot of turns out there today, but check out the textbook form of this roundy. Nice job sista!
Always stoked to post another lineup shot when the view is like this. We feel endlessly blessed to call Nicaragua home and to call days like this the off season.
If you liked today’s report and are looking for a break from the wintry cold you should consider booking a stay with us at Casablanca beach front rental house in Hacienda Iguana, Nicaragua and a stones throw from these waves.

We thank you for joining on another edition of the Nicaragua Surf Report. Tune in tomorrow.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! I’ve got another flashback surf report for this Saturday (ongoing technical difficulties). Today in 2025 the waves weren’t so bad. It was really windy, but the direction was straight offshore. It wasn’t so different from this pic from 2024 that you see here.
Hi everyone! Welcome to February 21st’s historical surf report review! Due to technical issues, today’s report will revisit conditions from the past 7 years, instead of showing you today’s conditions. Today was fairly windy, and the water was slightly cooler. But when compared to the photos you’ll see, you’ll note just how windy it was..
Hi everyone! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The sunset window was so-so, but yesterday morning was fun. The wind direction was good this evening though.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Hello and welcome to the weekend surf report. We keep having fun waves. The waves are coming constantly in the high tide and not there are too many surfer today. Is sunny day and the offshore wind was normal. Check it out.
Hello and welcome to our Friday surf report. This is Armando and D-lite bringing you our day in paradize. We were a little stressed today because the waves were really small and the winds were strong. Of course we made it happen and had a great time. Here we have what we call the line..
We stayed down south today, actually we went to Playa Maderas and we found some small but nice waves. The waves were running in the chest high range, winds were straight offshore and the water was amazing. Check it out!!!
