Ghiglia Images featured on ESPN.com

I have been traveling throughout Baja for a good part of the last 25 years. It is a place that I hold dear to my heart for many reasons. As an avid fisherman, the years of saltwater angling south of the border have brought me more exciting moments than I can count. As my love for surfing and photography grew, Baja provided me with a rich frontier of uncrowded waves and new discoveries within a days drive of my home in San Diego. One could say that Baja has been a "giving tree" of sorts. Each time I go down there I bring home wonderful experiences, new discoveries and images I can be proud of.

With all of this in mind, it is a pleasure to have contributed to the article written by Surfer Magazine Senior Editor, Baja aficionado and friend Kimball Taylor. In his piece, Kimball brings to light the current situation with Mexico's plan to construct a number of marinas along the Baja peninsula's Pacific coast. Unfortunately, these marinas will undoubtedly destroy some of Baja's most famous point breaks. Due to the current drug cartel struggle in Baja as well as the sunken economy, Mexico officials have put much of the construction on hold. Interesting enough, some of the abandoned marina construction sites have given way to nature, transforming them into what potentially could be new world class wave setups in the near future. It is a very interesting scenario and a good read.
