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 late morning report from Colorados. It was clean this AM, but notably smaller. The sets still had enough size to offer up tubitos.
Hey amigos! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. Wednesday was a let down compared to what was forecasted. It was not 4ft @ 16 sec as projected by Surf-lie haha. The sets were good when they came, but there was one quality set every 20 minutes roughly. It was a waiting..
Hello Tuesday, I checked Colorado in the morning hoping the new swell was going to be showing, but didn’t see much happening yet. So decided to check Panga drops up the beach our local swell magnet. @tonyzphotos reporting.
