Hello everyone, this is Baldo from our beautiful Santana beach in Tola, the center of the surfing universe of Nicaragua.

After having problems starting my 91 Toyota Land Cruiser, by the way, the perfect surf mobile for this area (big thanks to my neighbor Mike (you’ve seen him on this report very often) for helping me), I might got a little bit too late to the beach… there were only three surfers in the water and the tide was getting low.

There were a lot of pelican in the water, flying around, diving for fish, enjoying the morning and escaping from the crashing waves whenever a set came.

Usually pelicans fly away right before the waves hit them, almost like a game… but how many of you have actually seen a pelican getting crushed by a wave? Well, today is the second time I’ve seen that rare event (the first time was like 6 years ago). The pelican started flapping its wings but the crashing lip took him down and hold him for a few seconds under the water. This is a second wave about to get him again.

This other pelican managed to escape from the wave right on time… and the surfer tried to do the same but gravity did its job. He almost landed it though.

Even though the tide was getting low they were a lot of waves with a really nice shape coming through, and nobody around to catch them.

I’ve heard it’s been cold in many places in the US… don’t you want to be surfing, enjoying the warm sun, relaxing on a property overlooking Santana beach? This is Casa Alegre, our newest rental in Rancho Santana (we don't even have it listed on our website yet) where you and your friends (or family) should come spend your vacation together. Casa Alegre should be ready for rental in the next couple of weeks.

Another surfer that can testify about being in Nicaragua right now was a great decision… face covered in sunblock, rashguard in one hand, surfboard in the other, and a girlfriend that (hopefully) will take some photos of you shredding the waves.

But you don’t need to be a surfer to enjoy paradise... this guy knows how to hang out at the beach, a girlfriend, some nice shades, a big smile and a big cooler!

The lone surfer getting on a nice left… he’s going to need a cold one from that cooler after this nice surf session at Santana.
