Normal: take the interamericana Highway until Divisa then take left heading towards Las Tablas, at Las Tablas Central Park take left and then the second right and drive towards the town of Tonosí, once you are in Tonosí go through the town and drive to the town of Cambutal once in Cambutal after crossing a small bridge you will see the water and right in front of you you will see Cambutal Surfcamp the only place to stay at Cambutal beach. good luck...
Just bring two boards, some bug repelent and wax because you will surf a lot of waves along with your friends.
Overview
Atmosphere
This break with a good swell can be as good and powerfull as Santa Catalina but the only diference is the non existing crowd of this place and thatīs a good advantage... in Cambutal you will find diferent breaks in the area because is a huge coast line with waves breaking along coast there are beach breaks as well and other spots that can be reach by boat but you will find there very thick and big waves (15+ feet), Cambutal breaks receive swells from north and south and also west because of itīs geographical position so donīt miss it and visit this spot. see ya.
Bad Karma
Bad karma is for the person that bad mouths the person who helped them get there truck un-stuck out of the mud!!
I am a gringo that has lived in Cambutal for 6 years full time and It was not I who helped the dumb ass that got his truck stuck in the mud.
For the record I pull tourist out of the mud at least 6+ times a year and never charge anything but never have received anything for helping out neither!
Every year retarded tourist show up and act like they own the place and drive like idiots. The people who live here don't get stuck because we know better!
If you weren't so racist against expat gringos you would have stopped and asked them if you could drive any further before you got your truck stuck!
Than you would also have a better understanding that gringos bought all the land around the surf brakes years ago and they are the reason that there was no one around during all your solo surf sessions that you had to tell the world about!
Bad karma goes out to the dump ass that has to go home and tell the entire internet where he just went and how it went!
If any one is going to get snaked from the karma card it most likely will be you!
After all .....you said yourself, that you came out and had the surf all to yourself and had a great time?
So why are you spilling the beans and talking shit about someone who helped you out!
As for my neighbor who tried to charge you for pulling your truck out ?
Well??????
As far as I know everywhere in the world charges to get someone out of a serious bind.
Would you tell the AAA guy that comes to jump your car that he should get beat for sending you the bill?
You do not decide who gets snaked here!

fun waves
just got back from here. we scored really fun waves and there was noone out at ANY of the breaks near by. got stuck w/ the 4x4 and some shitty 'local' american burn out dude tried to get us to pay him to help us out. bad karma. when you go, snake the 'local' americans... It's a haul to get there but seemed worth it to us.
