Somewhere in Nicaragua
Sorry folks, it rained all day yesterday and we didn’t make it to the beach with the camera. Today, we got up early and checked out the scene at Maderas. The aftermath of yesterday’s storm has left us with some bad wind conditions – that, combined with some windswell did not bode well for the surf today. Check it out.
Notice how there is nobody out…there were however, the occasional corners coming in. This one looked kind of fun, about head high or so and super shiney in the morning sun.
Hey, the three brothers who run the hostel at Maderas are building some more rooms! See that brick structure going up next to the treehouse – that’s it. For $5/night, you can stay right here at the beach and surf all day. Business is good.
These shots aren’t from today, but we just received them from our friends at “The PIT” surfshop in St. Augustine, FL. Thanks for sending them in. We think this is Salong from Limon.
RECENT REPORTS
Hey everyone! This Friday morning offered us a special window at Colorados. Gavin Doan was like the energizer bunny this morning. He was lapping everyone in the water haha.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Thursday morning’s surf report from Panga Drops. The waves were similar to yesterday morning size-wise, but with lighter wind. The waves were better this morning in my opinion. The size did seem to be slowly building through the day.
Hey everyone! Josh back behind the lens for the next few days. This Wednesday’s surf report is coming your way from windy, low-tide Panga Drops. It looked, and felt, a lot like dry season today. The wind was blowing hard in the morning and the sand was ripping across the beach. There were a few..
FROM THE ARCHIVES
Fun swell in the water, but we missed the morning high tide at Maderas. The waves were still about chest to head high, probably bigger at high tide and offshore winds all day long. Check it out.
