Hey, so here it is:   i'm planning another surf trip to Guanacaste and
trying to put together a small group(3 or 4 total).  Will be flying
into Liberia(Daniel Oduber International)on Delta and spending 4 nights
in Tamarindo and 3 or 4 nights at Playa Grande.  I live in New Smyrna
Beach area and will be flying out of Orlando Int'l.  I'm shooting for
June 28th - July 6th so if anyone is interested in a spectacular surf
trip let me know asap. . .

NATIONAL FORECAST

Pacific - Surf is chest to head high Sunday, up to consistent head high on Monday, and a few sets a foot overhead on Tuesday in the southern zone. By the afternoon the SSW swell fills in the Nicoya peninsula with the same head high surf. On Wednesday the bulk of the waves arrive, overhead with a 2 foot overhead set every half hour, and the size stays the same through Friday. Saturday a few bigger pulses show from nearby tropical formations. Sunday the waves drop two feet to head high, but another SW arrives next Wednesday with big surf and long period swell.

Caribbean - Monday will have waves chest high with only the best spots showing a head high peak on the sets. Tuesday through Thursday has surf waist high with chest high sets once an hour. Friday the sets disappear, and by Saturday a waist high wave will have to do since nothing else is showing.

** From Ed at Witchs Rock Surf Camp in Tamarindo -

Surfers.. This is Ed again telling you about our surfing for today... It's seem like everybody went out last night because Tamarindo was empty this morning, but that's ok waves were not that good today. On shore winds all morning. And the swell is not helping, for are waiting for this week, a swell is coming from the south, it seems to bring nice waves, let's see what happen. - Pura vida

** From Harry at Coconut Harrys Surf Shop in Playa Guiones:

Hola from Playa Guiones (Nosara), Well, what can I say - it's pretty weak here with waist and occasional bigger set waves - reminds me of a "good" day at Virginia Beach :) So, best times are around high tides which is in the mornings for the next several days - winds will be calm or light and there's enough water to "peak" the wave. Pura vida - Coconut Harry at www.coconutharrys.com

** From Jesse at the Samara Surf School -

New and upcoming events: Samara is starting a recycle program now, benefitting the beach and the local school children. Also: Festival de Sabores - Samara 2006 February 17 from 12-8pm An international flavor festival, food and wine tastings from all of the different cultures living in the community. Project Buena vista, goal is to raise $10,000 to help the local families, kids, schools and community..

** From Chuck at Walking on Water Surf Shop in Jaco -

AREA WAVE HEIGHTS AND CONDITIONS - Tamano de las olas y condiciones: Small surf right now but pretty fun anyways . 3-4 ft faces and a bit larger at Hermosa but with the big tides Jaco is better shaped , did a session in Centro and it was okay quite clean anyways . Expect decent waves in the a.m. and afternoon if we get the rain we get the glass too !

Anybody want a Eric Arakawa custom shaped HIC , 700$ with custom charges and everything including f.c.s. and delivery here just in time for Christmas . He and I have a meeting in September and it's a great op to have him build a rocket for you and check out the site for some of his current shapes ,the newest hot stick isnt even on it it's the best beachbreak shape they make and its called the ELEMENT . I have 2 samples on the floor still but they are selling fast 4 arrived 2 weeks ago ! Also have some new C.I.s in TUFLITE that just arrived as well ! Come on by and check us out ! Thanks Chuck and the CREW at W.O.W. SURF !
