Punta Quilla/Madera

Punta Quilla/Madera is a great beach break, hollow and fun up and down stuff when on, it is best on a rising tide and works from two to seven or so feet. Consistently on. Access: go through Playa Marsella about three kilometers, look for what is as of this writing a gate. Walk down the animal trail about a mile.

If you are heading to Nicaragua for the first time, you should book a surf trip through one of the big surf travel companies. They’ll set you up with the right guide and that’s important. You don’t want to find yourself stuck in some riverbed with your rental 4×4 and nobody but your girlfriend to help push you out.
