Somewhere in Nicaragua
First of all, don’t get too excited – this photo isn’t from today, it’s a photo we took about two years ago on a day that is largely responsible for our decision to move down here. This photo is of Mr. Brown and has just come out in the latest issue of Surfer’s Journal – a two page spread! Check it out if you get a chance, there’s also a good shot of Lance from Surfari Charters (who is once again confused with D. Hobgood) Special thanks to Dean who wrote the article!
Now, back to reality…it’s still pretty flat out at Playa Santana today. The wind was light early and light onshore by mid-day. There might be a rideable wave somewhere, but it’s not really working here.
Here’s a shot looking up the reef – the onshore winds bring in the fish and folks have been tearing up the Snapper out here. Hopefully this pattern will change tomorrow…
RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Tuesday afternoon’s surf report from French Fries. It was pretty small today, but the wind wasn’t as strong as forecasted. The wind was blowing somewhat side-shore from the East though.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Monday’s early afternoon solo-session at French Fries. Lesther pretty much had the lineup to himself out there.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Sunday evening’s surf report from French Fries. The surf was smaller today, but it was cleaner and hitting the sandbar better. So better waves than yesterday even though it was smaller.
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Taking the day off…but still taking some pictures. We went to Maderas today and found some small, but fun waves. The winds were gusty and offshore again and the water is damn cold. If you don’t believe me, check out the guy in the fullsuit!
