Nicaragua Surf Report for Thursday, June 22, 2017

Javier Baldovinos

Hey everyone, this is Baldo with the surf report from Jiquelite beach. It rained hard last night so the conditions this morning were not the greatest.

Javier Baldovinos

The last couple of days were great, super light offshore winds with great barrels everywhere (you can check the last two surf reports from Colorado!), but not today... today was onshore, messy and dirty. 

Javier Baldovinos

The first time I went to the beach there was nobody out surfing, there were a few people just checking the waves but seemed not good at old, maybe because it was still a little bit earlier for the right tide.

Javier Baldovinos

First peak had a big current coming from the river mouth that was flowing strong after last night's rain.

I went back around 2 hours later and the waves were considerable better and of course, a few surfers going at it... but still onshore.

Javier Baldovinos

All the surfers were located on the central part of the beach. First peak looked horrible because of all the water coming from the river.

Javier Baldovinos

Between the river and the tide, they created a island of sand, like a peninsula that probably will not hold if another big rain decides to come this way.

It was really hard to find the right place to be but, somehow this affirmation didn't apply to Mario at all.

Javier Baldovinos

Here is Mario again going for the lip. Sadly this was his last wave.

Javier Baldovinos

This is how it usually looked today, brown waves crumbling down everywhere.

With luck you could find a decent wave long enough for a couple of turns, specially between sets.

This guy takes today's price for Positivism and Perseverance. He decided that today was a good day to go fishing... from the beach!

Javier Baldovinos

Second price goes to this guy who was doing very well without caring for the conditions.

Javier Baldovinos

A few locals were out there which is great to see... not all of us are spoiled with the great conditions that Nicaragua has almost year round.

Javier Baldovinos

It looks like tomorrow we'll have better conditions, it would be great because I want to go surfing!

Javier Baldovinos

He went to another spot, this time right above the reef. Good luck buddy! Check out tomorrow (and every day) for another surf report from Nicaragua!
