WEEKLY SURF REPORT
June 30, 2008
National Forecast
Caribbean Coast - The tropical swells continue all week with surf starting out 1 foot overhead and only dropping to head high by Wednesday. Thursday calls for inconsistent head high waves and Friday will only be chest high. More disturbances will keep the right coast full of chest high surf through the weekend.
Pacific Coast - The SSW swell peaks Sunday afternoon and drops a little bit by Monday, down to overhead surf by Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday are the smallest for the week at head high with a background SSW swell. On Friday a more localized WSW swell strikes the Northern Nicoya coast, pushing surf back overhead, but this only lasts through the weekend. Farther south will stay overhead, but nothing bigger is expected until a week from Wed. (7/9) when a powerful south swell arrives that has built up near the coast of Chile..

Tamarindo Report
** From Rafael at Witchs Rock Surf Camp in Tamarindo -
Today is post to a new swell and the conditions was really good, because big set, offshore wind, open wave sometime, more in the left side. Tamarindo looks great this morning and all the local they was there, size 3ft to 5ft in front to the camp. I hope tomorrow makes a good wave too, and a little bit bigger. See ya tomorrow. Pura Vida~
