SURF NICARAGUA!

Nicaragua is the perfect destination for the demanding surfer. The Pacific coast of Central America receives consistent, big swells, and in Nicaragua the proximity of the sea to Lake Cocibolca makes the wind blow offshore approximately 300 days per year!!

There are basically two seasons in Nicaragua with respect to the weather. The dry season extends from November to April, and the wet season from May to October. The southern Nicaraguan coast is battered by the southern swells that are more consistent in the wet season, when there is less wind.

The dry season, however, is an ideal time for beginners and intermediate surfers, who can enjoy smaller waves and smaller crowds.

There are about 12 breaks in a 20 kilometer coast line with all kinds of waves, including point, reef and beach breaks. There is a wave for every kind of surfer and every surfing level.

Come and check for yourself. Surf Nicaragua!!
