Surf Freight Trains

Freight Trains - Puerto Sandino, Nicaragua Freight Trains features powerful, hollow lefts breaking over a sandy bottom with rocks. This rivermouth wave is best surfed at low to mid tide during rising tide conditions. Access is exclusively by boat, with local surf camps providing transportation, leading to variable crowd sizes. Known for its lengthy rides, Freight Trains can deliver waves up to 400 meters when conditions are optimal. The spot is highly exposed, making it challenging during strong winds. Surfboards of all types are suitable, but stamina is essential due to the long paddles and unpredictable currents. The peak surf season runs from April to September, with spring and autumn also offering decent conditions. While the vibe is generally good, be cautious of crowds, especially when multiple surf camps are active, as they can lead to a busy lineup.
