Pavones – The swell arrived yesterday and it did not dissapoint.  We had shoulder to overhead plus waves yesterday.  Unfortunately the wind got on it around mid-morning but we still had good conditions throughout the day.

Semana Santa is upon us.  We have had some solid surf the past week.  We should start to see the swell dwindle down for the rest of the week though.  We had solid shoulder to overhead surf the past week with good conditions.  We also had a nice crowd too due to the holiday week.  We’ve been getting a little rain here and there but definitely seeing changes in the weather.

We had some great surf this past week.  Surf height ranged from waist to head high+ with fair to good conditions.  We got some rain too for the first time this year.  What a refreshing feeling as we had gone months with just hot and dry weather.  Hopefully we can start seeing a little more moisture as it is super dry here to help all the flora and fauna and the low water wells too!

This local was ripping this wave.

We have been waiting patiently for some swell to come in.  This whole past week has been small and unimpressive.  Today waves were in the knee to waist high range.  The forecast does not look promising but we are hoping to get a little bump on Saturday and Sunday.  This is the time of year to grab the snorkel gear and go spearfishing.

It was a scorcher today.  Summer is in full swing and temperatures are blazing.  February and March in Pavones are some hot months (and in all of Costa Rica).  The kids were making the most of the weather by jumping off the Rio Claro bridge to cool off.  We had some fun surf today as well.  Waves were in the chest high range.
