Heavy, powerful beach break when it's on. One of the best waves in tha world for sure allow big barrel, fast and super strong .......pure adrenline rush. This place is HEAVY and really good. I would say it is just as heavy as Puerto if not heavier. If you are not an EXPERT surfer do not go there. This wave is for expert barrel riders only. If you are into the party scene go somewhere else there is NO nightlife and NO chicks. This is for serious tube riders ONLY. I surfed it at double overhead and it was unreal. I live in Central America at a beach break on the Pacific coast and we get some heavy surf as well. This is not a place for guys who are not experienced in serious surf. Two months before I was there, a couple of years ago, a Venuzuelan bodyboarder died. This place is as mean as it gets. Now to the guys that are into this kinda thing and you know who you are... THIS PLACE IS UNREAL. The bigger it gets the better it gets. Bring your miniguns and be ready to break at least one. This place is not for chicks or guys who wanna party. The accomadations are core and the food is so so. Edgar is a really cool guy he has the Hotel right when you come into town and you can rent a hot little room right in front of the break for cheap. You can surf from the early am to 11am or 12pm then it blows on shore for the rest of the day. After that there is NOTHING to do there. I went to Tecoman (a bigger town just ten minutes from Pasquales) everyday after my surf and went to the Internet Cafes. As far as the local gringo crew... everything you have read is true. Marty is an old man who has been there for many years and can barely surf anymore, (
nathan is good dude.
Nathan helped me out alot when my car broke down there and seemed to me to be a very honest guy.

Response to Nathan
Your a kook and forgot to let him no when you were leaving. Nathan goes to colima all the time just gotta let um know when u want your board. what do you would think he would do if someone left a broken board at his house? kook
Nathan - Board Repair - Ripoff
Watch out for Nathan the board repair guy that used to work for Edgar. I had him fix some dings in a CI Flyer but on the day I went to pick it up he was not at his shop. I had to return state side and asked my friend that lives in Colima to pick it up. Turns out Nathan fixed the board but sold it to someone and collected the cach. I had also advanced him 200 pesos because for supplies. To this day he makes up increasingly far fetched stories as to where the board is, but the bottom line my board is gone.
