Panga Drops, March 2014

Panga Drops: Waist High, CleanSmall start to the month that officially marks the start of the Nicaragua Surf Season. Actual conditions were better than forecast; forecast was for it to be flat. Consistent waist to shoulder high.
Panga Drops: Shoulder High, CleanExpected it to be smaller, but size was actually up Sunday. Sets coming in head high and some decent punch to some of them. Conditions expected to get good midweek on solid 17 second swell.
Panga Drops: Waist High, Clean2-3ft fun. Should get good tomorrow...
Panga Drops: Double Overhead, CleanSwell coming in stronger today. Unfortunately, so was the wind. Perfect early.

Playa Colorado, March 2014

Playa Colorado: Head High, CleanSteady shoulder to head high surf today and light offshores. Swell expected to fill in tomorrow...
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanCarlos barrel sequence, 1st swell of the season. The waves haven't been much since the South Pacific Swell Machine mysteriously shut down August last year. Since then its been one long LULL. March we usually get a taster of things to come the rest of the March > Oct season. If today was anything to go by, Colorados is back in business...
Playa Colorado: Head High, GlassySwell is down, but looking good again today! Solid head high+ surf, light offshores, wall-to-wall sunshine. Should hold 3-4ft through the weekend.
Playa Colorado: Head High, CleanSolid head high surf and clean conditions on the high tide early morning. Side shore wind picked up and got messy as the tide dropped.
Playa Colorado: Head High, GlassyConsistent shoulder to head high surf and perfect weather on tail end of fun first swell of the season.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, Clean2-3ft, clean. More of the same expected tomorrow Tuesday, possibly smaller. Wednesday should start picking up. Thursday 13th/ Friday 14th there's a thin band of swell peaking out at 19 seconds due in. Looking good toward the end of the month from the 24th - 27th...
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanForerunners for tomorrow's swell rocking up. Mostly on the left (even though today's best pics are rights) which is consistent with the more southerly angle we're anticipating from the new swell.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanLooks like the anticipated swell passed through early, peaking out yesterday afternoon. Today was shoulder high at best. Next swell expected Saturday, March 22nd. Between now and then background swell should keep it shoulder high. Similar to today.
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanOverhead, good form. Both lefts and rights working earlier in the day before the winds increased. Blustery side shore winds through the middle of the day reduced for a fun sunset session. Should hold head high through the weekend. Looking small early part of next week and another longish period swell due in Monday 24th.
Playa Colorado: Head High, CleanHead high and clean early before side shore breeze kicked in mid morning.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanSmall today!
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanTiny today and looking small through the weekend. Monday/ Tuesday there's a pulse due in. Feeling the HEAT now the winds have calmed! Late March/ April is often the hottest time of the year here in Nicaragua.

Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanSolid overhead, great weather. Gotta love Nicaragua!
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanPlenty of swell, but winds strong. Best early/ late.

Playa Colorado, March 2013

Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanSwell cranked up a notch through the night, was GOING OFF this morning at Colorados. This swell has exceeded expectations with wave size pushing double overhead on sets. Wind and weather conditions have been perfect; light offshores & sunshine. March is supposed to be the month when the Nica Surf Season kicks off, and that is EXACTLY what it has done. Macking 19 second swell tracking in steep south expected Monday morning and multiple pulses showing behind that. Nica Surf Season 2013 is ON!!
Playa Colorado: Overhead, GlassySmaller today, remained steady head high with occasional overhead sets. Light winds again. Not one, not two but THREE significant pulses expected in over the next ten days. Massive swell showing at the end of the long range; latest model projecting arrival March 16-17th.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanStrong winds are back on and expected to hold through most of the week. Monday will see winds in excess of 30mph all day.

Playa Colorado: Waist High, StormyHOWLING offshore gales the last few days and ocean temps have plummeted. Wind strength is expected to reduce tomorrow and stay moderate all next week. The long range is showing light offshore in the 4-7mph range toward the end of next week from Thursday 14th. Decent swell coming in all day and PLENTY more on the radar.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanHowling gales and frigid water from upwelling. Plenty of swell on the forecast for the next 10 days; offshores expected to stay moderate to strong throughout. The end of the long range is showing a reduction in the wind from Sunday, 17th... but that situation could change as the dates draw nearer.
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanWind is pumping, so is the surf. The O'Neil team are here and shredding hard... in wetsuites. Cold Water Classic comes to Nicaragua!! And its COLD. A solid week of strong offshores has brought the water temp down below 60F.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanLess wind today, but water is still cold. Shoulder to head high, consistent. Mostly on the right with the swell coming in from the SW. Lighter winds on the forecast for the rest of the week so water should warm up quickly.
Playa Colorado: Waist High, CleanLight winds thorough the night and glassy early morning BUT the water is still cold. So cold the sea snakes are wriggling up the beach to escape it. Watch out for these guys - they have a painless bite which leaves no mark. First symptoms are headache, thick feeling tongue at about half an hour. That is shortly followed by breakdown of skeletal muscle (you dissolve), then death.
Playa Colorado: Overhead, CleanSteady 15 second southwesterly delivering consistent head high to overhead surf; both lefts and rights opening up perfectly. The offshores are blowing hard at the moment, in the 15-25mph bracket. Several swells due in over the upcoming week, the most powerful maxing out at 2.5ft, 18 seconds on Saturday 23rd.
Playa Colorado: Head High, CleanSteady 3-4ft, moderate offshore breeze. March 20th to 24th will see a juicy 16-17 second swell work its way through. The forecast is indicating the winds will be light and variable with some risk of light onshores.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, CleanSmaller today and messy midday with sideshore wind. The swell/ weather couldn't look better from midweek on. Several pulses in the 14-18 second range and light offshores. Small chance of the wind swinging round onshore, maybe we'll see some morning sickness on the dawn sessions.
Playa Colorado: Shoulder High, GlassyLight breeze today and temperatures up in the 90's. Glassy, shoulder high surf. A lot of swell on its way for Easter week...
Playa Colorado: Head High, CleanSlight bump in the swell today with sets running head high, some overhead. A large red blob of long period swell is getting close; should be seeing forerunners tomorrow morning. Solid forecast for the rest of the week and through the weekend.

Playa Santana, March 2013

Playa Santana: Shoulder High, CleanConsistent shoulder to head high surf today, Thursday. Gale force winds continue. If you're headed this way anytime soon don't forget your thermal rashy or even a spring suit. Upwelling is in effect and the water is COLD!!
Playa Santana: Head High, CleanConsistent 14 second swell at 3ft accompanied by moderate offshores and not too much tidal movement mean its an all day barrel fest up and down the coast. Miguel went to Santana today with some of the O'Neil team. They caught it good on the incoming tide. MASSIVE swell just appeared on the end of the long range, currently showing arrival Thursday, March 21st.
