Nicaragua Surf Report for Monday, June 26, 2017

Javier Baldovinos

Happy Monday everyone! Today the waves were small but with a great shape, peaks like this one were the norm of the day through all day. Super fun!

Javier Baldovinos

I went to Santana beach early in the morning to get some shots of the outgoing tide and this is what I found… first peak was throwing some good ones, not so hollow but good drops.

Javier Baldovinos

First peak is Tony’s favorite spot, whenever he comes to the beach he always goes there no matter the conditions, and today he scored some good ones. Yeah Tony!

Javier Baldovinos

He almost scored this one but couldn’t make the drop… you need to come out more often Tony or you’ll get rusty!

Javier Baldovinos

Another first peak lover, Jan with a “Matador” kinda move… Olé torero!

Javier Baldovinos

But the good waves were not only at first peak, the whole length of the beach had A-frame peaks coming through.

Javier Baldovinos

And those A-frames once in a while threw some nice hollow rights.

Javier Baldovinos

… and some hollow lefts too.

Javier Baldovinos

The tide dropped really fast and it was time to go for some coffee and breakfast, even though Jan seemed that he didn’t want to leave.

Javier Baldovinos

At low tide I went to check out Rosada beach and lucky me there were two lonely surfers having some fun there. Rosada can be a tricky wave, it looks so nice and easy but in reality it is a fast, shallow wave. Look it here, it starting to get steep!

Javier Baldovinos

Check out how meaty it gets, if you get caught on that spot you will probably have urchins for breakfast.

Javier Baldovinos

It’s very important to have the Eject Button within reach at all times because you will be using it very often.

Javier Baldovinos

Here is the other surfer on a good size wave.

Javier Baldovinos

He went for a nice roundhouse cutback but…

Javier Baldovinos

… he went too deep at the wrong spot, the wave jacked up really quick making him loose the control. By the way, I was taking these photos from one of the houses we manage at Rancho Santana.

Javier Baldovinos

This is Casa Brown, right in front of Rosada beach, with an amazing view of the break. 3 bedrooms for up to 6 people.

Javier Baldovinos

The newest house at Rosada, also managed by NSR… Casa Rock has also 3 bedrooms and nice outdoor common areas.

Javier Baldovinos

And if you like to travel with big groups, Casa McVay is your place, waterfront up in the cliff overlooking Rosada. 5 bedrooms for up to 12 people. What are you waiting for? Reserve your next vacation in one of our houses inside Rancho Santana and have Rosada beach at your feet.

Javier Baldovinos

Later in the early afternoon I went to Santana again for a party, the one and only Pancho was having his birthday at first peak with family and friends.

Javier Baldovinos

Looked like he invited everyone, the beach was packed with people in and out of the water. There were people walking, others just tanning but everyone was having a great time.

Javier Baldovinos

A few regular bodyboarders here at Santana doing 360’s, rollers and a few aerials on every wave. I need to meet these guys, I thought they were just random tourists but it looks like some of them are living full time here.

Javier Baldovinos

Even Hotsticks Hannahs got out of Hacienda Iguana to celebrate with the birthday boy. Look at him getting some candy!

Javier Baldovinos

Birthday boy going for his candy with two hands, he didn’t hit the piñata but the party was fun!

Javier Baldovinos

Chris was another one that came to celebrate with the crew.

Javier Baldovinos

And where there is a party, Hot Carl is there to throw some confetti at everyone.

Javier Baldovinos

But not only Carl knows how to throw confetti.

Javier Baldovinos

There were people celebrating everywhere, even at the farthest corner of the beach.

Javier Baldovinos

The middle of the beach, that’s where you could find the best candy!

Javier Baldovinos

Tasty, colorful candy for everyone to take.

Javier Baldovinos

La jefa was not feeling it, she tried to get some waves but I guess she let Pancho get all the fun on his day.

Javier Baldovinos

Pancho finished his party in the water with this wave, then he probably continued his celebration with his daughters amd other friends.

Javier Baldovinos

Happy 30th birthday Pancho!! I hope you guys enjoyed today's surf report. The waves will get bigger pretty soon, you should come get your piece of the pie with us!
