About Popoyo
Popoyo is a surf spot on the Pacific coast of Nicaragua, in the department of Rivas, along a stretch of coast with several beaches and a scattering of small places to stay. The main wave breaks over a rock reef and is often described as powerful, with an outer reef further out that is said to hold much larger surf. Waves reach this coast very regularly, and the area is widely known for the offshore wind that funnels in from the lakes inland, which is generally credited with keeping conditions clean. The biggest swells usually arrive in the southern winter, typically from around April to October. The reef and the power of the waves lead many to describe Popoyo as a spot for surfers with some experience, though gentler beaches lie nearby.
