K-55 Access
  Drive down past Puerto Nuevo, past the sand dunes and when you see a turn off road that heads to a gated community go to the guard gate and ask to be let in. You are about 3 miles north of La Fonda so dont go past there.

Additional Surfing Infos
 It is a right that may look harmless but is actually a powerful wave. The paddle out isn't to bad but the paddle in sucks due to urchins EVERYWHERE!
  Overview
  Atmosphere Really mellow spot. Not to crowded at all. There is another reef break next to it and a beach break next to that.
  General Excellent spot for the experienced.

You sound like every punk, uneducated spoiled surfer that unfortunately seems to be common these days. Your not Mexican, so it dose not matter how much, or when mommy and daddy paid for “their property” it is just a lease!!! I have been surfing more in Mexico, and I am finding that most of the true local MEXICANS, are getting sick of putos like you!! The ocean is for everyone!!!!!!

Buffalo Bill & The Bell Bottom Bandit lives !
Its true, before I had friends who owned houses there, I was told twice my car would be vadalized if I didnt leave, even though I thought I flew under the radar! I do understand, Its a fickle wave, gets perfect only a few times a year and unfair to owners and locals to be mobbed. Sometimes during the week, really good with no one out. Weekends are no good. I see 5 guys show up in a range rover at San Miguel and wonder what went wrong...I guess its about using common scence and having a friendly attitude.

Used to be Great
K-55 used to be one of the best beach breaks on the west coast. In the 1970s it broke a lot like Blacks. It was a-frame peaks, mostly lefts and super-hollow. Most waves would spit. The kelp-bed kept it glassy all day when Baja Malibu was blown out. Then the El Nino of 1983 dredged all the sand out to sea and it hasn't broke since. Now it just bounces and surges onto a cobblestone berm. Rest in Peace.
