Somewhere in Nicaragua
Man, this has been a good swell. We’ve still got some waves today out here at Playa Santana. It’s about head high on sets, offshore and barreling. The fun factor doesn’t get much higher than this. Here is a view of the lineup.
You can come stay with us at the NSR Casita and this wave is a two minute walk from your front door.
We’ve got a slowly fading swell for the next day or two and then it looks like another fun pulse on the way.
We’ve also got a report in from Roberto at Maderas today who says it’s smaller but still fun. The water got a bit colder too so it’s nice to wear a warm top if you’ve got one – otherwise you aren’t staying out too long.
Here’s a good contrast on wave size at different beaches during the same day. It actually looks like Maderas is picking up a tad more of this swell. This is Josh from Ft. Lauderdale picking off a nice left hander.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday’s surf report from Colorados. I saw the waves turn on and off about 7 separate times today. The conditions were in constant flux. It just so happened to be that the best window of the day was when I took pictures around 1:00pm.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Wednesday’s surf report from Colorados. The waves were better by all measurable metrics today. It was still walled up and slow, but there were definitely some 10 pointers to be had.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday evening’s surf report from Colorados. The swell was bigger and stronger today, but it was very slow between the sets. I think the lack of a secondary swell combined with the sandbars not being in perfect shape made for long waits.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
We still have swell. It’s running head high and consistent with offshore winds. Roque, hitting the eject button
