PLAYA SANTANA
Hello everyone, this is Baldo reporting from Santana beach. Sadly there is not much to report here, the waves were small and still breaking in shallow waters, really close to the sand.
I guess these are really good conditions for skimboarders, if you know any good ones, send them this way, I’ll be glad to take some photos of them shredding at Santana.
In case you didn’t know, this past Sunday we had a Lunar eclipse here in Nicaragua… this was one of my first intents of taking a photo of it (without a tripode, of course!)
And this is the best photo I took (still without a tripode), not bad, right?
We need a big swell to hit Santana in combination with a big tide to move all the sand on the beach and take it back to the water to create the nice sandbars we all love here.
For now, these have been the only visitors every day at Santana… hundreds of birds having a feast of sardines.
And not just the birds see an opportunity with the fish… plenty of local fishermen have been enjoying the feast too. See you tomorrow hopefully with some surfing! Hasta mañana!

Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were pretty much firing when I rocked up to take pictures, but just like yesterday the wind went side-shore as soon as I put the camera away. At least some surfers caught the magic window.
Hey amigos! Welcome to March 1st’s surf report from French Fries. The waves were really fun in the late morning and early afternoon. The wind direction was perfect, but then flipped side-shore right as I went to grab my board haha.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s early afternoon surf report from French Fries and Pangas. Bruno found the best waves of the photo window. Someone could’ve split the peak going left with him here too.
