Hello everyone! This is Baldo again from Santana beach. The swell arrived today but it’s still onshore. It was kinda choppy and closing out but still some fun ones came through.

With the onshore winds the humidity levels go to the roof, everything is sticky and you don’t stop sweating. I just want to be in front of the A/C! But I guess some people want to make the best of it by going for a morning run.

After a while in the sun I took a 1 hour break, and when I got back I found a better (shady) location with this bird comfortable under this coconut tree. It is called Zanate, it’s the most common bird in Nicaragua.

It was steep and fast but this guy had it all dialed up. He was going just for the biggest waves on each set.

Look at him going full speed on a bottom turn. I don’t understand how he didn’t loose control of the board!

After the big drop you ended up with a lot of speed that, with a good bottom turn, could lead you to have a good turn on the shoulder.

Happy Tuesday, We’re happy to see the first signs of the new swell. It takes a while for the sets to come and it does have some wobble with the higher tide. But people are out taking advantage of surf. @tonyzphotos reporting.

Hi there, the waves were running about the same size as yesterday, we were hoping to see a nice push in the swell today but It hasn’t happen yet.  Head high sets were rolling in, winds were nice offshore and the water was nice and fresh.  Check it out!!!
