Playa Aserradores - Northern Nicaragua

Rolling into Nicaragua I had one thought on my mind, surfing! This country is famous for its uncrowded waves. Most people who do travel here to surf go to the south, but since we were coming in from the north I was stoked when our friend Jordan in El Salvador told me about a little property that he claimed was paradise. Located just north of Marina Puesta Del Sol (translation, Sunset Marina), Hotel Chancletas sits right in front of a famous surf spot know as "The Boom Wave". The owners are American and they've set up an amazing destination. Great affordable rooms, internet connection, and a fabulous restaurant are the bullet points. But the real draw is the view and location. You literally have your own private beach and wave right out front.

This is the view looking out from the restaurant at Hotel Chancletas. We've got the same view from the sunset rack on the Sprinter. Insane hang. We are loving it...

Shay and his wife Loretta are the owners of Chancletas. Shay rips pretty hard. Here he is going backside on the Boom Wave...


Another surfer goes left on the Boom Wave. This thing is pretty sweet when it's working. I'll post some photos of me as soon as I figure out how to ride it without getting pounded. Give me a few days...

Family beach time. Our favorite.
