Pacific - Saturday and Sunday look fine, 2-3 foot overhead at the
better spots, but less rip and a perfect dawn patrol tide. Then it
drops some each day through the week, a foot overhead by Monday
night, head high all week and through next weekend. Then a week from
Monday (6/21), a nice SSW swell arrives, long period, bringing surf
back up to 2-3 foot overhead.
Caribbean - This Saturday waves are waist to chest high, with rain
coming in frequently in the afternoon. Sunday and Monday look the
same with Tuesday morning starting a new push of E swell, head high
with bigger sets. The swell peaks Thursday, 1 foot overhead and by
Friday cleans up, but drops a foot by that evening.

with two waterfalls enhancing the view out to the Pacific ocean? The
next morning you can rapel down part of a 600 foot waterfall, just an

New Moon - May 18th
Low Tide: 1.21 ft at 10:05 am
High Tide: 8.67 ft at 4:20 pm
NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - Lots of stormy weather make finding glassy conditions
tough. However, by Monday the storms will pass and high tide will be
in the right frame for double dawn and dusk sessions. Surf size - 1-2
foot overhead this weekend, dropping down to overhead Monday and
chest to head high Tuesday. The next SSW pulse shows Thursday morning
and fills in Friday with more waves in the 1-2 foot overhead range.
Will drop back to head high by next Saturday, with nothing major for
a few days afterward.
Caribbean - Flatness has returned to paradise. Don't expect anything
over knee high all week. Time to hit the Pacific!

with two waterfalls enhancing the view out to the Pacific ocean? The
next morning you can rapel down part of a 600 foot waterfall, just an

TIDES *for Friday
(add 50 min. each day after)
New Moon - May 18th
Low Tide: 1.21 ft at 10:05 am
High Tide: 8.67 ft at 4:20 pm
NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - Lots of stormy weather make finding glassy conditions
tough. However, by Monday the storms will pass and high tide will be
in the right frame for double dawn and dusk sessions. Surf size - 1-2
foot overhead this weekend, dropping down to overhead Monday and
chest to head high Tuesday. The next SSW pulse shows Thursday morning
and fills in Friday with more waves in the 1-2 foot overhead range.
Will drop back to head high by next Saturday, with nothing major for
a few days afterward.
Caribbean - Flatness has returned to paradise. Don't expect anything
over knee high all week. Time to hit the Pacific!

Pacific - For Saturday through next week, each day it will get a
little bigger and cleaner, from the SSW. Saturday is chest to head
high with a few quality overhead waves. By Monday it's a foot bigger
and hovers in that size through Thursday. Thursday afternoon, 5/20,
the juice from a trailing SW swell fills in and by Saturday it's 2-3
foot overhead. Disfrutalo!
Caribbean - A late season has blessed the reefs with some ENE ground
swell, headhigh to overhead at the better spots, but fun every where.
Sunday morning will be the best, as the swell passes by Monday
leaving waist high peaks. Another band of E swell rolls in Wednesday
to bring head high surf going into next weekend.

NICOYA (N)
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
We've been enjoying offshore mornings this week to match our high
tides and perfect (just overhead) size swell. The surf has been a
little lazy compared to the crisp windy season waves we are used to,
but consistent, and light crowds. The tides are now too low for
afternoon sessions.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): It looks like the offshores may hold
through the weekend, and then it gets a little dicey as the high
tides move into the afternoon next week with a high possibility for
afternoon onshores.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: Keep an eye on the main peak
in front of the hotel and Avellanas "rivermouth" if the swell comes
up.
** From Coconut Harry's Surf Shop in Nosara:

AREA REPORTS
NICOYA (N)
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
We've been enjoying offshore mornings this week to match our high
tides and perfect (just overhead) size swell. The surf has been a
little lazy compared to the crisp windy season waves we are used to,
but consistent, and light crowds. The tides are now too low for
afternoon sessions.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): It looks like the offshores may hold
through the weekend, and then it gets a little dicey as the high
tides move into the afternoon next week with a high possibility for
afternoon onshores.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: Keep an eye on the main peak
in front of the hotel and Avellanas "rivermouth" if the swell comes
up.
** From Coconut Harry's Surf Shop in Nosara:
Playa Guiones (Nosara) Smaller, chest to head-high surf with good
shape. Not crowded (now). Pura Vida, Coconut Harry

TIDES *for Friday
(add 50 min. each day after)
Full Moon - May 4th
Low Tide: -.42 ft at 10:20 am
High Tide: 10.07 ft at 4:39 pm
NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - The next SW fills in Sunday morning with surf 2-3 foot
overhead with sets every ten minutes. This is a solid ground swell
with an 18 second period that developed two weeks ago and will last
until next Thursday. Also expect an 11 foot tidal swing that will
amplify the swell with the tide coming in. (Locals, watch for
flooding!) Monday it drops a couple of feet, but by Tuesday it is
back to 1-2 foot overhead and if you are not there, you are missing
it! Go join my friend Denny in Pavones! Long range shows consistent
overhead surf through next weekend and by the following Wed. (5/19)
the start of another surge of SW, 2-4 foot overhead.
Caribbean - A consistent barrage of ENE wind and ground swell mix
keeps the beachbreaks in the chest to head high range throughout the
weekend until next Wednesday when it starts to fizzle. Reef breaks
may get 1 foot overhead, best day is Monday.

Full Moon - May 4th
Low Tide: 1.81 ft at 5:22 pm
High Tide: 7.24 ft at 11:15 am
NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - The south Pacific is belching out SW'ers once a week, the
next surge coming Sunday afternoon with waves 2-3 foot overhead from
the SSW. The 14 second period swell drops a foot Tuesday and another
by Wednesday afternoon and by Thursday it's back in the head high to
overhead range with also a dawn patrol high tide. Then look out for
the next SW arriving next Sunday with some more 2+ overhead sets.
Caribbean - Out to prove me wrong, the Caribbean sea continues to
push in ENE swell in the waist to chest high range, with some beaches
getting head high sets. This lasts throughout the weekend and in well
into next week, consistently waist to chest. Watch out for some heavy
rain showers.

Low Tide: 1.81 ft at 5:22 pm
High Tide: 7.24 ft at 11:15 am
NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - The south Pacific is belching out SW'ers once a week, the
next surge coming Sunday afternoon with waves 2-3 foot overhead from
the SSW. The 14 second period swell drops a foot Tuesday and another
by Wednesday afternoon and by Thursday it's back in the head high to
overhead range with also a dawn patrol high tide. Then look out for
the next SW arriving next Sunday with some more 2+ overhead sets.
Caribbean - Out to prove me wrong, the Caribbean sea continues to
push in ENE swell in the waist to chest high range, with some beaches
getting head high sets. This lasts throughout the weekend and in well
into next week, consistently waist to chest. Watch out for some heavy
rain showers.

AREA REPORTS
NICOYA (N)
** From Diana at the new Pura Mar Surf Shop and Rentals in Tamarindo -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
We're in a lull right now, waiting for the swell that's supposed to
be on its way. The waves in Tamarindo are about waist high, winds off
shore in the mornings only. Thank God the water is finally warm
again. Estamos en un tiempo de calma, esperando el swell que se dice
que viene. Las olas en Tamarindo estan de a la cintura y el viento
esta off shore solamente en las mananas. Por dicha que el agua esta
caliente otra vez.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): It should be a nice weekend for late
afternoon and sunset surf. Things are supposed to start changing on
Sunday when a swell comes in from the south. Debe ser un buen fin de
semana para surfear en las tardes y al atardecer. Las cosas
supuestamente empezaran a cambiar el domingo cuando un swell llega
del sur.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: Playa Grande and Playa
Avellanas should have nice waves right now and be even better when
the swell hits. Check Langosta on Sunday. Playa Grande y Playa
Avellanas deben tener buenas olas hora y deben ser aun mejor cuando
llega el swell. Mire Playa Langosta el domingo.
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
After a great beginning this week, the swell has dropped down to head
high sets with barely enough juice to break at the super high tides
in the morning and afternoon. The wind has been slightly onshore for
the afternoon sessions for the last two days, but conditions in the
morning are holding with some good small waves on Thurs.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): As we move into diminishing high tides
in the morning, and the new swell just around the corner, we are
expecting typical excellent April surf.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: The main peak in front of the
hotel will be the spot until the swell fills in, then anywhere in the
bay could get interesting.

** From Diana at the new Pura Mar Surf Shop and Rentals in Tamarindo -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
We're in a lull right now, waiting for the swell that's supposed to
be on its way. The waves in Tamarindo are about waist high, winds off
shore in the mornings only. Thank God the water is finally warm
again. Estamos en un tiempo de calma, esperando el swell que se dice
que viene. Las olas en Tamarindo estan de a la cintura y el viento

afternoon and sunset surf. Things are supposed to start changing on
Sunday when a swell comes in from the south. Debe ser un buen fin de

** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
After a great beginning this week, the swell has dropped down to head
high sets with barely enough juice to break at the super high tides
in the morning and afternoon. The wind has been slightly onshore for
the afternoon sessions for the last two days, but conditions in the
morning are holding with some good small waves on Thurs.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este

in the morning, and the new swell just around the corner, we are
expecting typical excellent April surf.

hotel will be the spot until the swell fills in, then anywhere in the
bay could get interesting.

Pacific - Waves up in Guanacaste will be near perfect, headhigh to 2
foot overhead, stiff offshores all day and lots of sunshine. The WNW
swell mixed with a SW will peak and ebb and foot through Monday,
before dropping down Tuesday to a very consistent head high from the

overhead waves will sneak through. It stays smaller through the

Jaco, The following Monday, look out for some bomb sets and an epic
eight-nine days of SW swell! Book your flights or just get out da
hammock!
Caribbean - The peak of the NE swell pegging the reefs around Limon
this Friday slowly fades over the weekend, from overhead to headhigh
Sunday, and Monday back to waist to chest. Expect a few showers
midday as well. By midweek next week nothing big is coming but there
will be something to ride until the weekend, waist high from the ESE.

foot overhead, stiff offshores all day and lots of sunshine. The WNW
swell mixed with a SW will peak and ebb and foot through Monday,
before dropping down Tuesday to a very consistent head high from the
SW. Then by Wednesday, the sets are farther apart, but an occasional
overhead waves will sneak through. It stays smaller through the
weekend (chest to occasionally overhead), a foot bigger south of
Jaco, The following Monday, look out for some bomb sets and an epic
eight-nine days of SW swell! Book your flights or just get out da
hammock!
Caribbean - The peak of the NE swell pegging the reefs around Limon
this Friday slowly fades over the weekend, from overhead to headhigh
Sunday, and Monday back to waist to chest. Expect a few showers
midday as well. By midweek next week nothing big is coming but there
will be something to ride until the weekend, waist high from the ESE.

NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - Solid SW swell with a WNW mixed in brings overhead surf to
the whole west side, points are getting the cleanest waves as
beachbreak will be bowly or closed out. Will clean up and get two
feet smaller, back tohead high + by Sunday and super clean Monday.
Then by Tuesday afternoon, the first double overhead sets will start
hitting, and by Wednesday double overhead is the norm. Thursday, just
as big but even more consistent. Early morning post dawn patrol
sessions will be the absolute best time to paddle out.
Caribbean - Remnants of Atlantic stirrings lap on waist high on the
beaches, and the bigger swells don't push in any energy until next
Tuesday, when surf recovers to some chest high sets. Will set up to
be a nice midweek, consistent chest high with a few bigger sets at a
premier spot.

headhigh to 2 foot overhead. By Monday though, the SW swell fades and
nothing is backing it up. By Wednesday, surf is down to chest to head
and by Saturday, some beaches will be only waist high. The next minor
swells arrive on the first of April from WNW and SW.
Caribbean - The seas have dropped for the time being, it will be
waist to chest high through the weekend and into next week. The next
swell arrives Wednesday, pushing surf back to head high with bigger
sets flowing in for Thursday and Friday before dropping quickly by
next weekend.

AREA REPORTS
NICOYA (N)
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande:
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
We've had a week of super surf in the head high range with occasional
larger sets. The wave shape improved from good to perfect from last
weekend as the offshores diminished. The afternoon onshores on Mon.
brought our normal March warm water back and didn't affect the surf
in our area since the offshore wind has been nearly perfect for the
morning high tides. The wave window was so long on Thurs. that
outgoing tide was virtually empty for hours and a few lucky surfers
had the session of a lifetime.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): The high tides are moving in to the mid
day and surf conditions should be fine if the wind continues to
cooperate.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: The focus is at the main peak,
but there are peaks working all up and down the beach with Chicken
Head Rock showing small, but good form. If this next swell hits too
hard, we'll head down the service road toward the Tamarindo Estuary.
** From Carlos at Roca Bruja Surf Tours in Playa de Coco -
Reporte de oas de la zona de roca bruja y potrero grande- Witchs

AREA REPORTS
NICOYA (N)
** From Diana, the best surf instructor in Tamarindo -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
de las olas y condiciones: Waves in Tamarindo this week are an
average of waist high; very nice for longboarding but look out for
COLD COLD WATER. Wow! Unless you are native to a cold-water break you
might want to stay on land until the off-shores let up a little. Las
olas en Tamarindo esta semana tienen un pormedio de a la cintura y
son lindas para el longboard, pero ojo con el agua MUY MUY FRIA. Wow!
A menos que esta usted acostumbrado a surfear en agua fria, tal vez
le vale quedarse en tierra firme hasta que se calmen un poco los
vientos off- shore.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): It's a dawn-patrol weekend for
longboarders. With wetsuits. Es un fin de semana para los a quienes
tienen longboards. Y wetsuits.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: Playa Grande probably won't be
any warmer, but it should have enough size to keep the blood
circulating. Playa Grande problemente estara fria tambien, pero debe
tener olas de un tamano para mantener la sangre en circulacion.
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande:
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
The offshores have been strong all week, significantly lowering the
water temperature into the low 70's, and fanning perfect afternoon,
head high to slightly overhead, barrels. Lots of short Johns de
mothballed this week.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): As the offshore wind diminishes, the
water temperature will return to its characteristic March embryonic
warmth. If it goes onshore it won't affect the surf since the high
tides are now in the morning. The swell is spiking up and down at the
right size for Grande.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: There are 4 or 5 good peaks
working both ways in front of the hotel.

NATIONAL FORECAST
Pacific - Bring your spring suits if you plan to surf in the north
Guanacaste Coast, as strong offhsores have pushed the warm water out
to sea. For size, expect chest to head waves with surf a foot bigger
down south. The next SSW fills in next Friday, pushing the surf 1-2
feet overhead by next Sunday. Also enjoy the double sessions with the
dawn/dusk high tides.
Caribbean - Waves are still coming in waist to head high, depending
on the spot, and should increase to consistently head high or better
by Monday. It fades again quickly by Wednesday, back down to waist
high. Quite a few afternoon showers, too.

AREA REPORTS
NICOYA (N)
** From Diana, the best surf instructor in Tamarindo -
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
de las olas y condiciones: Waves in Tamarindo this week are an
average of waist high; very nice for longboarding but look out for
COLD COLD WATER. Wow! Unless you are native to a cold-water break you
might want to stay on land until the off-shores let up a little. Las
olas en Tamarindo esta semana tienen un pormedio de a la cintura y
son lindas para el longboard, pero ojo con el agua MUY MUY FRIA. Wow!
A menos que esta usted acostumbrado a surfear en agua fria, tal vez
le vale quedarse en tierra firme hasta que se calmen un poco los
vientos off- shore.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): It's a dawn-patrol weekend for
longboarders. With wetsuits. Es un fin de semana para los a quienes
tienen longboards. Y wetsuits.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: Playa Grande probably won't be
any warmer, but it should have enough size to keep the blood
circulating. Playa Grande problemente estara fria tambien, pero debe
tener olas de un tamano para mantener la sangre en circulacion.
** From Louis at Hotel Las Tortugas in Playa Grande:
AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones:
The offshores have been strong all week, significantly lowering the
water temperature into the low 70's, and fanning perfect afternoon,
head high to slightly overhead, barrels. Lots of short Johns de
mothballed this week.
WHAT TO EXPECT THIS WEEKEND (weather and waves) - Que va a pasar este
fin de semana (clima y olas): As the offshore wind diminishes, the
water temperature will return to its characteristic March embryonic
warmth. If it goes onshore it won't affect the surf since the high
tides are now in the morning. The swell is spiking up and down at the
right size for Grande.
BEST PLACE TO SURF THIS WEEKEND IN YOUR AREA - El mejor lugar a
surfear este fin de semana en su area: There are 4 or 5 good peaks
working both ways in front of the hotel.
** From Carlos at Roca Bruja Surf Tours in Playa de Coco -
Reporte de olas en roca bruja y potrero grande. Roca bruja (witchs
rock) las olas estan entre 3 a 4 ft pequeño, el viento bueno todo el
dia y la temperatura del agua 19 grados muy fria. Potrero grande
(ollies point) las olas estan entre 2 a 3 ft pequeño, el viento bueno
todo el dia y la temperatura del agua 21 grados fria. Esperamos tener
mas suerte con el oleaje..att: Carlos barrera playas del coco, visit:
