Awesome Surf: Nicaragua Travel Guide
The greatest surfing in the Western hemisphere is in the Pacific Ocean. In addition plenty of places in the U.S. claim to have the best waves. Save your decision until you've been to Nicaragua and surfed its shores. Not only will you find some of the most excellent waves on the Pacific here, you'll also get to enjoy the phenomenal scenery that goes with them. Many places that claim to have superb surfing turn out to have a lot of people and only a few waves to accommodate them all. Not so in Nicaragua.
Wave action is accessible for all levels of surfers, from beginner to pro. Marsella is a beach with enormous waves and great action. You can surf all day there if you are in excellent condition. The beach and waves are deservedly popular with vacationers and locals as well. This is not an isolated beach, but there are plenty of waves for all surfers who wish to enjoy, and the water at no time feels busy even in the busiest months.
One of the best beaches for huge waves is Playa Maderas. Not only are the waves large, they are always consistent, which is a great thing to offer a surfer. The wave action is good all year long. Many skilled surfers who have been all over the world choose this area to almost any other they've experienced due to its consistent large wave action.
The location of Nicaragua is what makes the wave action so thrilling and so consistent. It's situated at a location in Central America where it gets waves from the Northwest and the Southwest simultaneously. This means that wave after wave rolls in, alternating directions, providing unbroken wave generation. Unlike many beaches where you have to paddle out and wait, these beaches produce waves the second you're ready, which means that much more surfing is available in the same period of time as most other places. Take hold your board and go to Nicaragua.
