San Juan Del Sur

 San Juan del sur

After a relatively painless drive we arrive in the sunny seaside town of San Juan Del Sur. We were taken to our room and immediately felt the scorching temperature so we left the door open got some glizzys and head for the rooftop where we got some inside info on co rica. Back to bed where we tried to get some sleep.

Day 2

Day of the pub crawl. We queued for our tickets grabbed a vest then went back to being anti social as we grabbed a beer from a tienda and went for a dip in the sea before joining the party. Saw a few familiar faces but unfortunately not the Bristol Bunch. There was also a tattoo artist there…

Anyway, on to the next bar! Short shuttle followed by an all too familiar pick up truck ride up to what wouldn’t be out of place in the Hollywood Hills. 

Pool, pints and people. 

After what seemed like forever we finally made it back with one bar left. We got some rest in and went out the the club. 5 minutes later we’d had enough and called it a night.

Day 3

Surf time. Pulled up to Alex’s Surf Shop, hopped in the pick up, and off we went. Brief walkthrough of the basics by Alberto and out we went. Like John B and JJ we carved about 4 killer waves and then were wiped out 🤙. 



Back for some za and hit the hay.

Day 4

After finding out how naturally waterborn we are, we decided to rent some body boards and catch the swell on the beach outside. This time however we were played. Waiting about 15 minutes for a wave, got bored and took a small one only for a behemoth to appear right after. This happened all evening until we finally caught one which we agreed signalled a day. Had AC this night but that was almost worse as I work up freezing and got even less sleep.

Costa Rica bound.

Cheers for tuning in
