Even though first peak was not presenting barrels, it was breaking good, showing some nice drops and bottom turns.

The barrels were a little bit to the north, not so many but definitely you had good chance of getting them them if you were on the north end of the beach.

This is Gustavo after a big drop that almost got him, nothing that he couldn’t handle though, after all, he is one of the Limon 2 top surfers.

The tide dropped really fast (or maybe I got there kinda late?) so I decided to come back later with the incoming tide in the afternoon.

It is so much fun to see him work behind the camera, how he plays with all his expensive equipment and the quality of the photos are amazing, I’ll post some of the photos here once he give them to us.

By looking at the shadow you can tell how wide that barrel is.

For a moment I had some issues with my lens, the auto focus was not working properly, that why this photo got kinda blury but still it’s a good shot of this bodyboarder.

Happy 4th of July! The size of the surf dropped notably today. There were still good sets, but patience was key (again). Hard to believe there were no takers on this one!
