March 12th - Waist to chest high and disorganized

Nosara Costa Rica Surf Report

Surf Size

Waist High

Wind Conditions

Slack

High Tide

12:27 AM, 1:01 PM

Low Tide

6:43 AM, 7:08 PM

Buenos dias folks & T.G.I.F.! Surf today in Playa Guiones has dropped a little bit and is running in the waist to chest high range. There might be a nugget or two out there that is a bit bigger, but not much. The wind is pretty slack and almost onshore as of report time around 8:45AM. So, that is making things pretty disorganized and chunky. If you make it to the shoulders on the set waves you can grab a nice little ride though. The tide is still pretty low though, so as more water fills in it could get a little bit better as long as the wind doesn't blow onshore too hard. Looking ahead, it looks like the next couple days will be bringing us similar swell and conditions. So, we are still waiting for that first BIG South swell of the season!

Our featured Vacation Rental of the Week in the box below is Casa Belitza. This house is big enough to bring the whole family and maybe even a couple cousins! Sleeping up to 9 people, with internet, a pool and a short walk to surf...this is a great pad for your vacation!

Have a great weekend!

Pura Vida,
Ryan

Andrew's January Fishing Update with Agua Azul Charters

January definitely gave us some solid swell, and produced the kind of waves that make you want to do nothing but think about surfing. Tubes were abundant at most breaks, especially if you were in the mood to travel. But at the end of the month, the swell made it's way out.
