Somewhere in Nicaragua
The wind is onshore and the waves are junk but that doesn’t matter…San Juan Del Sur is going off this weekend! It’s the celebration of “Sandinista Day”. Everybody has tomorrow off of work and there are lots of events and parties going on. One of the big events is the Sailfish tournament which took place at the Marina here in SJDS. Here’s a shot of the trophies up for grabs.
There were all kinds of sporting events going on for the holiday weekend. Volleyball is one of the favorites and they were going at it today!
Surfari crushed it! SUBU!!!!They had a killer two days of fishing which included two sailfish releases and a marlin hook-up! Stay tuned for video of the Marlin – Lances says it was epic.Congrats you guys. Love to see our friends doing well.
The Dorado and Wahoo haven’t shown up this year yet so the prize for biggest fish went to a Roosterfish. This 48’pounder won the prize for biggest fish today.
Here’s a cool shot of the Surfar crew (Lance, Kristin, Jimmy and Norlan), coming in after a long day of fishin’. Check out the beach-soccer game going on in the background. We’ve got similar conditions forecast for tomorrow, so check back to see how we keep from going crazy!

Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for a few days. The swell today is the largest it has been in about two weeks. It was still slow between the sets, but there were a few one hour windows and pulses.

There were a bunch of people in the water and some load/annoying music on the beach so we can feel like we are..
Welcome to the Friday surf report. This is Roberto “Lucha Libre” and Mateo “Pledge” with the bad news. Unfortunately the wind was affected by the tropical development in the Caribbean. So today the waves were around a couple of feet overhead, but it didn’t matter because the wind was onshore. There were only a total..
