Nicaragua Surf Report for Sunday, September 12, 2021

Brian Scott

Welcome to the Sunday surf report damas y caballeros! We had some amazing big surf all day today… unfortunately with it came some big messy onshore conditions. But I was lucky to see two dedicated hombres out there braving and dodging some pretty big out of control sets. Check it out!

Here’s one of them (as pictured in the first image - taking off) This poor guy definitely got his lickings, but took it like a champ!

Brian Scott

Ohhhh the potential and complete difference this wave would look like if the winds were going the other direction.

Brian Scott

See… it looked like there were a few makable and semi-clean ones out there….

Brian Scott

But this is more of the reality of how it really looked. And it was a lot bigger out there than it looked from the beach.

Brian Scott

The beach was full of weekend vacationers, enjoying their last day before going back to the big city and work.

Brian Scott

Even the outside indicator was showing some signs of life way out there. Which is also a good indication of how much energy was out there…. and I hear its supposedly supposed to be bigger tomorrow too???

Brian Scott

Hmmm…. see there’s the only two amigos out there. That wave doesn’t seem all that big or crazy, but just wait…

Brian Scott

Here’s this unknown dude one that same wave after dropping in. Well, WAY overhead!

Brian Scott

And what most people don’t know or actually appreciate is that the onshore waves have a heavier punch and hold down that comes with this kinds of conditions. This guy surfed this big chunky mess of a wave pretty well!

Brian Scott

Liam, my little (big) buddy on the right, merging with the guy on the left…. I think this was their cue to come on in.

Brian Scott

No real way to get over or around all this closeout and a lot of water moving and pushing everything with all its might towards the beach. This guy opted for the hail mary kickout! jajaja

Brian Scott

Well, since my show was pretty much over, I noticed these people were fixated on their own different show going on way off in the far distance.

Brian Scott

Ahhhh - that’s what they and everyone else was looking at from the beach. How beautiful as the sunlight came out for just a moment, before the timely later afternoon rains came in to finish off the day. As always, thank you for checking out todays surf report. I will see you all back here for the Monday report. Who knows, maybe it will be clean and glassy in the AM??? XX Crossing fingers ~
