Somewhere in Nicaragua
Hi everybody, we are the NSR family bringing you one more time all the action for this Sunday surf report. Today we went to the beach in the morning trying to score some really fun waves. The waves were fun, running head high to a little bigger on sets with nice offshore winds. The line-up was uncrowded and the water was nice and warm. Check out the lineup!!!
The Semana Santa is almost here and we already had a couple of ladies lying down on the beach, trying to get a nice tan. Watch out beautiful lady, do not burn yourself out because it could be bad by the end of the week.
Today we are going to start with this unknown surfer, he was ripping all over the place. Check him ripping on top of this little nugget.
Here we have our very good friend Darwin, he was catching some really nice waves. Check him out with this cool bottom turn on this beautiful left hander. This wave may look double-overhead on Darwin, but remember he’s only about 4 feet tall – It’s a head high wave for everybody else.
We had some nice waves rolling in this morning at the first peak and this guy sat up in the right spot to catch some of the better ones. What a nice looking drop dude!!!
While Lucha was out taking surf photos today, the rest of the NSR team volunteered their time and helped teach the Barrio Planta kids how to surf. This is the second time we’ve done this for Barrio Planta and it’s definitely a fun time. The project gives local San Juan Del Sur kids something productive to do with their time after school and on the weekends. Activities include English classes, Arts and Crafts, Drama class, Sports programs, etc. A couple of times a year, the kids with perfect attendance get rewarded with a “beach day” – with Surfing as the main attraction. This time there were approx. 30 kids who made the trip – and they all had a blast! (so did we). Check out some of the photos!You can learn more about the Barrio Planta Project by visiting their website: http://barrio-planta-project.blogspot.com/
Our very own Carlos Caliente doesn’t miss a chance to give back to the community and enjoyed his time out there today. Here he is, dropping some serious knowledge on one of the many students he had today.
We were stoked to bring Luis Chamorro, former Nicaraguan National Surf Champion, out with us. He had a blast and the kids really looked up to him. Nothing better than a surfing champ teaching you how to surf!
DLite made it out as well and utilized every ounce of his teaching skills to get these kids standing. He went 4 for 4…and had a blast doing it. This girl came soooooo close to running me over on this one!
In between surf lessons, the kids had access to boogie boards. The whole day was a big hit and we’d like to thank Barrio Planta and everybody who helped out and made today a success. We can’t wait to do it again!
On the last shot of the day we have these guys come back home after the long surf session. Aright folks this is all for today. We hope to have some fun waves tomorrow. Please check back with us!

Hey everyone! Welcome to Saturday’s surf report from Playa Colorado. There was a window early today and right at sunset. At mid-day when I took pictures the wind kicked up making for better turn sections than tubes. Still a few if you knew where to look.
