Costa Rica's Weekly Surf Report
Volume 8, Issue 330
April 23th, 2006
 
NATIONAL FORECAST
 
Pacific - Stays small until Wednesday afternoon, when the first headhigh sets march in from a SW swell. This swell lasts four days (4/27 - 4/30), with waves 1-2 foot overhead down south and overhead up north, dropping only a foot by Saturday. On Sunday, another push from the SSW brings it back to a foot overhead, and this swell lasts ALL NEXT WEEK!
 
Caribbean - If you can't wait until Wednesday for surf, head over to Limon for a dawn patrol with surf 1-3 foot overhead from a powerful East swell. Drops fast on Tuesday, from a foot overhead down to head high by sunset. Wednesday has some leftover chest high surf and by Thursday it's back to flat - knee to waist. Nothing new expected through next Monday.
