A Casual Surf Trip To Baja... If there is such a thing

May 06, 2024 in Uncategorized

We headed to Baja Mexico for a three months of winter to surf and camp on every beach we could. Loading up our self-converted van with surfboards, snorkel gear, and sunscreen we did our best to explore on dirt roads, get sunburnt, and surf throughout the Baja Peninsula. 

Our goal was to avoid the crowds, but still catch good waves. I would be remiss to mention we missed a couple of swells, got cut up by the reef, and punctured a few boards, but the trip was a success. While the trips wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows, we had a splendid time in Baja chasing waves and sleeping on beaches. 

What happened? Check out the video below to find out:
