Surfing at Playa Maderas | Nicaragua


One of the top activities we wanted to do while in Nicaragua was take surf lessons. I've tried to surf in different places in California and Hawaii but Nicaragua was by far my very favorite. The warm water, all sand, no rocks, and the calm consistent rolling waves were absolutely perfect!

The owner at Hulakai recommended we stop by Escuala de Surf on our walk down to the beach and right away we were putting on rash guards and picking out surf boards. Our instructors were so incredibly nice, kind, extremely patient and awesome teachers!! We were far from graceful but the guys were having just as much fun as we were laughing with and at us. 

*I don't think the waves are always this perfect for learning to surf. I'm pretty sure Nicaragua has some insane waves that are not always the best for first timers. If you do go to Playa Maderas for surf lessons, please stop by Escuela de Surf. They are the best!!
