Overview
Caribbean - A 5 foot ENE swell (61 degrees) with a 7.3 second period starts the week with some waist high waves but drops Tuesday and stays small for the rest of the week.
Pacific - A 3 foot Southwest swell with a 12 second period stays consistent Monday through Wednesday and then a new SSW swell arrives late Wednesday with a 1.8 ft swell at 18 seconds. That should increase the size to 3-4 feet overhead by Friday when the swell is 5 feet at 15 seconds. A similar size and period swell follows up on Sunday with more big surf to start next week.

11/3 - The wind has been off-shore in the morning this week with plenty of sun. The shoulder high surf had good shape in the morning and Florida style form in the afternoon after the wind switched.
The tides are moving to the afternoon this week and the conditions in the afternoon pretty dicy. The weather should be nice, however, and probably a few days with the off-shores holding into the afternoon surf tides.

11/6 -We had some great open waves at about 1.5ft.
Awesome day to be in the water.
11/4 - Rising tide morning session glassy, small, fairly clean and centered mid-beach with a single consistent peak - odd for Dominical. Bright blue sky and small crowd make for good times!
11/2 - 2-3’ with fair shape The surf was really clean, glassy, and super fun, this morning. The weather in Pavones, Costa Rica was partly cloudy, but still quite sunny. We can probably expect some rain later.
The incoming high tide mushed it out once it was completely full, but should get good, when it starts to drop back down again.
