Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh MY!!!!

It was BIG WEDNESDAY in Rincon—and even BIGGER on THURSDAY!

The locals tell us this was the BIGGEST SWELL that's hit Puerto Rico in the last 15 years. Everyone came into Banana Dang with stories about the surf—from surfers who towed in (like our UPS man) to surf photographers who nearly lost their equipment in 10 ft. "white" water! It was a big party on Route 413 - cars parked neck-to-neck to witness monster waves.

Here are some words from Mario below...

The BIGGEST, most PERFECT waves I have ever seen.

Last night on my way to pick up bananas I pulled over on the side of the road to watch the most enormous waves I've ever seen roll through the Tres Palmas Marine Reserve. They looked to be about 40 ft+ on the face.

The only way I was able to get a sense of scale was by watching the jet skiers tow in surfers onto monsters waves. This was something I have only seen in surfing videos; to witness it in person is pretty mindblowing.

These last few months have been amazing. T2 and I are having a blast at Banana Dang. We learn something new everyday. The support from the local community and travelers has been great and make the long days of work come easier.

See you out there...MARIO
