I’m kind of burned out on big cities and was wanting a little time by the ocean and some surf, but in a small town.  I figured that I would head south from Morelia to the Michoacan coast to a very little town called Rio Nexpa.  Population, less than a hundred really nice people, a few old mangy dogs, a couple of jerks, and a world class left point break.

It was an uneventful ride down to the coast and to the little cobble turn off to the town of Nexpa.  There are plenty of places to stay here to fit all budgets as its a fairly popular surf destination, yet small enough to be off the radar of most people.  A perfect place to relax and catch some waves.

Not a bad little town huh?  Wow, and look at that point break!  Heaven.

Warm water, perfect head high point surf, offshore breeze, like I said, heaven.

There’s not much in the way of amenities, but there’s a little store, a couple of restaurants and some good scenery.  I dont really need anything else.

Nice accommodations with secure parking of course.  If anyone can steal my 500 pound pig right in front of my door,  out of deep sand, they probably deserve it. 🙂

Its a dogs life, but someone has to do it.

Actually, it was a really dangerous place.   Just look at what happened here. 🙂

Very dangerous, but nothing a little Baja ingenuity and a zip tie wont be able to fix…………..
