Good morning folks and happy Monday! Thanks for checking the surf report for Playa Guiones. Well, the small trend continues here as surf is running about waist high with the occasional stomach to chest high wave coming through every once in a while. It is a bit mushy as of report time around 8:30 and that will remain the case as we continue to approach high tide in a couple of hours. We have some unusual looking skies this morning as it overcast out and almost looks like it is going to rain, which would be pretty wild for this time of year. As a result the surf is kind of mixed up and has a bit of morning sickness on it, though the wind is still very light offshore.

Looking ahead... unfortunately it looks like this small trend is going to continue for the rest of the week. It should remain about the same size and might even drop a little bit. So, do the swell dance and pray for waves! Until then keep your longboards and small wave vehicles close by.

Today's feature is Andrew's monthly fishing update from January. He went out a couple times with Ryan Bombard and Agua Azul Charters. Read his story to see how they did...

If you guys need anything shoot us an email at info@surfingnosara.com. Also if you haven't already booked your pad for the spring break time frame and are still looking for a good deal, contact Rich at rich@surfingnosara.com, and he will let you know the best places in town that are still available. Have a great day!

Getting to Nosara from San Jose or Liberia

This page is an overview of how to get to Nosara, Costa Rica. First, however, you need to get to Costa Rica.  You are most likely going to fly, and will be flying to San Jose, or Liberia.  There are a number of airlines that fly to San Jose, Delta, American, Taca, Martin Air, and Spirit Air.

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.

Nosara Wildlife Rescue Part 2 - Refugio Animales de Nosara & Fundraiser Recap

Last week in our Behind the Business feature we highlighted Nosara Wildlife Rescue and Sibu Sanctuary. So, this week I delve into the other side of the partnership. I sat down with Brenda Bombard to spread the word about her work with Refugio Animales de Nosara.


Krelwear Fashion Show at Estancia de Nosara

While risks are often taken on big waves and late drops here in Nosara, one will typically not take the chance of hanging a man boob out on the catwalk. But as we all found out at the Krelwear fashion show last Thursday, fashion risks can pay off in fun times and amazing photos.


"End" of the Month Photo Contest

I'm sure some of you have picked up on our new trend on the surf report with the "end" photo. It all started as an accident and a joke here in the office, but it was just too good. So, we kept it up and have gotten good feedback on our "ends". So, since we are at the end of January, we are leaving it up to you all out there to pick the "End of the Month".


Nosara Wildlife Rescue Part 1 - Sibu Sanctuary

Costa Rica: the Rich Coast, the gem of Central America and the “greenest” most eco- conscience country on earth. These are all great things and Costa Rica is setting the the “Eco-bar” for other countries and generations to come.


Fishing with Agua Azul Charters

So it’s finally the official dry season here in Guanacaste. Two things are always a sure thing during this time of year: offshore winds and good fishing. That applies to spearing and regular on-the-boat style. I hooked up with Agua Azul charters once again, this time to use rod n’ reel tactics on the numerous dorado and tuna that we were targeting.


Photo Caption Contest

Your participation needed: SURFING NOSARA PHOTO CAPTION CONTEST!

The contest takes place on our Facebook page. There are two photos posted there today, so write a witty a caption for one or both of them. Go to: www.facebook.com/surfingnosara.


Paintball in the Nosara jungle

Things have been getting pretty busy around here in Guiones.  We have all been working hard, and of course, playing just as hard. So as a result there has been a bit of tension floating around the Surfing Nosara crew.
