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.
This was a fun chest high wave that snuck by the crowd.

Great time of year to be here in Pavones, Costa Rica. Lots of trees blooming right now, above is the yellow Cortez tree showing off its bright yellow flowers.
This tree I believe is called a gallinazo tree. This along with the Cortez are scattered throughout the area.

We finally got some waves today! The waves were in the shoulder to head high range with occasionally 1 foot overhead sets. The tide dropped fast this morning and the wind got on it around mid morning. Stay tuned for more of the Pavones Surf Report this weekend.
