Surf, Eat, Sleep..Repeat. Playa Santana and Popoyo

Been at Playa Santana and Playa Popoyo for the last week doing nothing but surfing. i spent the first two nights at Santana which is about 5km south of Popoyo. Santana is a great beach break and had lots of makable barrells. the swell was only 3 ft but there were perfect head high waves with offshore winds all day. After two days i headed down to playa Popoyo to save some money and surf Nicaraguas ¨best¨ wave. The wave is a fun reefbreak with both rights and lefts. Unfortunatly the wind turned onshore for the last couple of days when there was a 5 ft swell but the  waves were still surfable. After surfing 5 to 6 hours a day my body is tired and ready to move on. Tomorrow i am going to catch a bus to the city of Esteli where i can hop over to an epic sounding canyon called Somoto before eventually heading to El Salvador.
