Somewhere in Nicaragua
Not too bad out here at Maderas today. We’re in between swells, but it’s still chest high and offshore. The water is chilly due to the strong winds – we don’t have a buoy to read or anything but we are guessing it’s between 60 and 65 degrees – Really.
Even so, it’s a beautiful day at the beach and a great time to learn how to surf. This is EU, one of the best instructors in San Juan Del Sur, doing his thing.
There’s a fun longboard wave over in front of Machete point with no takers.
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
Another day, more swell. The arms are getting tired right about now. Head high surf again and offshore winds. An unknown beginner on a nice right at Maderas.
