Playa Grande Report
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones: Good conditions in the morning and afternoon are allowing us to ride some well overhead, powerful, surf. If it gets much bigger we'll have to slip down the beach to Tamarindo. It is cloudier every day as the rainy season moves towards us from the south where it has already begun.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este fin de semana (clima y olas): The tides are right for the morning window, so somewhere in the bay it should be surfable in case it gets too big out front.
Playa Negra Report
** From photographer John Lyman, Lyman Photos in Playa Negra -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones: The waves have been head high to a couple feet over head on the sets. This swell we are into now is too south for Playa Negra so a lot of the waves are closing out. Partly cloudy in the mornings with rain in the afternoons as we have officially moved into the rainy season. Water temp is 84 degrees.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este fin de semana (clima y olas): This south swell will peak on Sunday with well over head sets. The beginning of the week will see a decrease in surf as this swell fades. Chest high sets for midweek and then more south swell for the end of the work week and into next weekend.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a surfear este fin de semana en su area: We have high tide running through the mornings this week and that means Playa Negra early. There was only one guy out there this morning for almost an hour.
