Southern Baja Getaway

My buddy Jason and I made a bit of a last minute decision to head down to Southern Baja last week. A couple solid looking southern hemisphere swells were lined up and we both had the urge to get out of San Diego, which had been plagued with May gray and June gloom for weeks. Although I never really travel without some decent camera gear when seeking waves, this trip was primarily one in which the board would take precedence over the camera. I was there to surf.

Just as forecasted, the straight south swell hit on Sunday lining up the East Cape with miles of right hand point breaks. One day in particular we were blessed with double overhead glassy rollers with really nobody out but us all day. I had been needing a day like that for longer than I can remember. Definitely a therapeutic day filled with many memorable rides and lots of sun.

I'm back in San Diego now. The waves are flat and the sky is gray. But, we all know that's gonna change really soon!
