Chica Brava Weekly Stories

Another sunny and beautiful week in San Juan Del Sur has just come to an end. We had the pleasure to welcome 3 guests :

  • Erika, MA
  • Elisa, MA
  • Emilie, QC

All coming from the northern east coast, but all of them traveled solo! Erika and Elisa even realized they were on the same flight coming here! We went to the see the sunset, sipped on a couple of local drinks toes in the sand and talked about surfing! The “3 E” became a solid team really quickly!

From the first day, Erika could already paddle out and catch waves on the outside! It was her 6th time surfing central america! For their part, Elisa & Emilie never tried to surf before. Their goal was to get up and ride a wave, and by that first day on the inside of Playa Maderas, they could check it off the bucketlist! We all celebrated together at a new restaurant “The Beach House” watching the sun goes down and enjoying this beautiful moment.

The following days, we had to chance to explore new beaches around town. We went to Hermosa and experienced different conditions, we did good but also had our butt kicked a couple times! Hey it’s part of the game! At least, some of us enjoyed piña coladas from the coziness of the instalations!

We also surfed Playa Remanso. All the girls paddled to the outside together! The girls were numerous in the lineup and we played the game our rules! What a fun day, most of the Chica Brava staff came surfing with our guests and everybody rode amazing waves! We’re glad that our photographer Erick Barboza captured this beautiful moment! Lindsey the theory professor, even rode her new longboard for the first time! The stoke level was super high!

Remanso has been so good to us we decided to surf there the following days too. Friday has definitely been the best day for everyone, so much surf progress, so much happiness shared! Our smoothies from Simon Says taken in the morning before going surfing definitely helped energy wise! Everybody reached their goals, and ended their surf vacation on an amazing note. We met at SurfHouse for the final video review and went to an Italian restaurant! Cono pizzas, gelato & toñas made us happy! We ended our journey at la Cerveceria to see our very talented surf instructor Annie playing music.

From yoga, to surfing to chilling around town, i’ve enjoyed all of your beautiful energy! Thank you team 3E for such a wonderful week! Until next time!
