We took Sidewinder down the coast and checked out all the surf places suggested. They were all beautiful but seemed to have marginal waves. We dropped anchor in one area, outside of the surf break obviously, checked out the surfers who had paddled out and watched for awhile as we ate lunch. The waves seemed to be walling up and not many guys caught waves, so we decided to stay put and read. I think that most of the waves along this coast are beach breaks and are a bit gnarly right now.
Tomorrow we might take the boards and catch the shuttle up to Playa Madera, the most famous of the breaks here. There are two other beaches up there within walking distance, so maybe we'll find something. The beaches are beautiful, and the water is clear because it has not been raining much. We are checking out on Friday and leaving either Friday or Saturday for St. Elena Bay, the first place we will stop in Costa Rica. There are no waves, but it is supposed to be well protected and really beautiful with macaws in the trees and aqua clear water. Once again, we get to travel with Mandy, and that is way cool!
