So I checked the beach this morning, and it looked like the only place with swell was panga drops. I put the camera gear in the bag and took off on the moto

This is what it looked like early in the morning. The waves looked a bit soft, but there were some corners on the right waves

Just cause there’s swell doesn’t mean the wave is good. Case in point right here. You can tell the difference between this wave and the last picture right away

it can be tough to read out there, especially when there is less swell. the pelicans are the true wave riders out there, riding the air currents that the waves generate as they break

Not that I’m complaining though. It seems like it’s been getting hotter as the days go by. The clouds are a nice respite

Here’s a good example of one of the better waves today. This wave came in at an angle and then wrapped around producing this right. Lately, these swingers have been the good ones

If we don’t see your fins when you turn you’re not doing it properly

Hey viewers! Welcome to Tuesday’s surf report from Panga Drops. The wind was relatively mild today, especially in the morning and evening. It was small, but I’ll take small with no wind at Pangas over big and nuking wind.

PANGA DROPS

Sunday Funday! Welcome to this morning’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves were really fun this morning. There was a surprise bump in the size and the wind was light. Probably the best waves we’ve had in a week or two, in my opinion. Zach with a big late drop and a cameo from..
