Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, March 10, 2018

Hey guys, Kevin here with the report today.  It's been a pretty solid run of swell the last few days.  Looks like it held through yesterday, and there were even some leftovers today although it was definitely smaller.  

In any case, lets get to it 

From the start as I sat on the beach I was lucky enough to see a set wave come in. This one didn't barrel but it lined up real nice

pulled out right before the closeout

This was the average wave out there. Chest high little runners.

Thwack

One thing is for sure, things definitely cleaned up in the last few days. The water looked beautiful out there

Even the closeouts look nice

So I ran into Brian Scott today!  Brian as you guys probably know is one of the other NSR staff surf report photogs.  Here's what he's doing when he's not working .... working some more.   Life of a photographer haha!

Short ride, but nice style

This guy had a nice backhand.

The occasional head high wave came through

Beautiful evening at the beach, even if you didn't surf

Enough space for a turn right there

Looks like the pelicans are enjoying the lighter winds as well.

Drinks in the shade at sunset. Life is good

Look at that water. Such nice colors today. I saw some fish swimming through the wave when I paddled out yesterday

Looks like this guy is a bit jealous of the ladies' drinks

Love this photo. It's tough to describe really just how fast of a wave Playa Colorado is. This picture kind of conveys that sense

Look at that shoulder.  

A bit too late on this one. The lefts seemed maybe more frequent than the rights but they were running really fast.

If you were curious what Brian was doing earlier, there's a wedding happening this evening. Pili's is closed for dinner today because of it. I'm so happy for this couple, looks like the weather will be perfect for them. Love is in the air

Scoping it

Check out this sequence. This guy was lucky enough to be in the right spot for one of the waves that had a shoulder.

He's flying down this thing

Yeah, he landed this one

Check the float

Another nice sequence...

Gaining speed ... 

Nice. Dude didn't land it but it doesn't matter cause it looked good

 

In any case, thanks for checking the report guys. Swell trending downwards tomorrow but radar says it might be coming up early next week. We'll keep an eye on it for you guys. Thanks for stopping by!
