Somewhere in Nicaragua

Ooooof, that still pretty rough. At least for me, I am supposed be creating a nice surf report for all of you fine people to see here today.

Welllllll, that’s another option. I guess when the surf is bad, it’s a really good thing we have a beautiful beach club with a pool to relax in, while Junio serves up some killer daytime concoctions behind the beach bar for you (virgin of course if you’re under 21).

Beautiful weather! Maybe skim boarding will have to suffice the next few days??

With not that many people wanting to take to the sand bars all to themselves, I think I counted 2 people out. I decided to head up the way to the reef to see if anything was going on up there.

Believe it or not there were some fun little corners! This spot always delivers when everywhere else fails. Not bad, having a backup surf spot at the beach you live at and especially for those who come to visit. It’s like scoring that one open Chinese eatery that’s the only restaurant open on Christmas day.

I guess If that last sentiment were true, then this would be this guys fortune cookie for the day!!

One thing is for certain, I Absolutely Love the water color whenever we have onshore winds. If I’m being honestly optimistic.

Today was also a great day for this. Just a nice beach bike ride with the winds in your face. I wonder though what Kenny’s eyeballing out there….?

Did you know we have our own Nica version of the “Beatles” Abbey road. Our’s just happens to be a little more special since it’s chica surfers, barefoot on sand not pavement, rocking some soft tops and the fourth member has four legs and is named Tahoe, instead of Ringo.

For not having that much swell, I’d say there were some well overhead sets.

Looked like this thing really wanted to barrel too!

The people have the most fun are the best surfers out there on any given day. How cute is this micro gremmy??

Eliana has been getting out there a bunch and it shows, which has got to make her mama and papa so proud.

I mean, check out that form, stance and look of determination down the line. Way to Go Eliana!! You’re gonna be on one of them podiums here in a Local Nica contest soon if you keep this up chica!

There is noting better than seeing groms out there doing their thing on the days like this when we all need to remember that, it IS all about having fun! Maya in the FunZone!

The other of the three amigas, Sara was utilizing every bit of the onshore push to help get into these wave. These are actually the best days for learning to how to surf. All while doing it with lots of giggles and the company of a couple of your BFF’s; without a care in the world.

Lilah is definitely on the pint size of the gremmys charging out there today, but make no doubt, I watched her ride wave after wave while she was being pushed in by her super cool dad Adam (out the back keeping a keen eye on his little tadpole-minnow) She showed no signs of fear while sitting out the back when some proper 4-5 footers rolled through.

Eliana stoked for her amiga Maya taking it all the way in to the beach.

You usually don’t get to see too often the views opposite of the ocean here, since we’re here to properly give you all a surf report, but here’s one of the original group of condos erected here back in the get go of when Hacienda Iguana started. I actually used to come stay here back in early 2000’s before finally moving down. Needless to say, they’re still one of my favorite places to post up on occasion and hang when I’m shooting with good fiends and or clients.

Book it, especially if you try the off season. If you like minimal crowds, you won’t regret it!

So that’s my report for the day. Cheer up Mr. Zac, the offshore’s will be back… soon!!! Btw I got that 150 yard right you got all the way to beach you were getting out on from this photo. Sick one dude! Tomorrow’s Sunday and most of us will be glued in Web and TV land waiting to have found out the extent of the damage by Irma. Thoughts and prayers are still pouring out to our friends and family who are stuck or had no choice except to stay and stick it out as she makes landfall though the Keys and Flordia tonight and tomorrow.  Godspeed people!~  !Abrazos y besos!!!
