Surfrider coastal news


"OK dudes, here's the scoop....if you want a bunch of hoopla go somewhere else, but if you want to visit one of the few unspoiled surf spots within a days flight of anywhere in the U.S., with long peeling waves 360 days a year and great food, you'll want to visit Troncones Point Surf Club. The small compound located on a wooded point overlooking the Pacific has a first class Palapa perched above the tree tops with great views and all the comforts that anybody needs at the end of the day surfing.......a frig full of drinks and a few lucky friends".

The area boasts many great surf spots known to surfers worldwide. The great thing about this variety is there's good surfing somewhere along the coast in every season.

The closest spot is right in front, Troncones Point, but there are shore breaks up and down Troncones Beach, so you're almost always within walking distance of good waves when there's surf. Likewise, these are some fantastic, easily accessible spots both north and south of the Club.

Troncones Point: This is a left-point break off a rocky stretch, directly in front of the Club. Depth is about 6-10 feet at different points in the line-up and gets shallower in moderate range to the beach. There are some hazards to be aware of, so initial guidance from a seasoned rider would probably be helpful. Also, if you're not opposed to booties, it's a good idea to wear them.

La Boca: This is a river mouth north of the Club that boasts great lefts and rights during the High Season (Nov. - Mar). La Boca is accessible by foot or 4x4; walking, follow the sandy beach about a half-mile past the Majahua Palms Resort; driving, 4x4 down the beach past the village of Majahua.

La Saladita: This spot is located off a point, with incredible, never-ending lefts; appropriately, it's locally known as "The Wave Machine." It's a long paddle, but a long ride. From the Club, it's an easy 30-minute drive north through the village of Los Llanos.

The Ranch: The Ranch: This area has hard, fast lefts and rights off a point. It's accessible by car and panga (guided surf boat); the drive is north just over an hour, the boat ride is about one-half hour (the boat will stop at La Saladita on the return).

To experience a range of locations and conditions, we highly recommend renting a car. Most areas are accessible by conventional two-wheel drive, but four-wheel drive vehicles are also available and can come in handy. If renting a two-wheel drive, it's wise to bring your own portable surf racks (four-wheel drive rentals are often equipped with roof racks). Overall, the terrain is pretty mild and you'll certainly spend more time in the water than off-roading; we've had friends rent the smallest economy car available and experience no problems getting to The Ranch.

Additionally, with at least-24 hours' notice, Fermin, our manager, can arrange guided surf trips to various destinations for groups of four or more. All you need to do is show up with plenty of water and some Power Bars. Most tours leave from the pueblo Majahua--a five minute drive from the Club--at zero-dark-thirty in the morning and return you in time for siesta.

If you don't care to haul your own board with you, rentals are available at the Club. Surfboards rent for $25/day, $125 a week. We've got the following boards to choose from:

• 6’ 6” Spyder Murphy, Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa
• 7’ 2” Becker Supermodel, Manhattan Beach, California
• 8’ 0” BZ Soft Top, Southern California
• 8’ 5” Chuck Burns, Southern California
• 9’ 4” Quicksilver, Jeffrey S Bay, South Africa
• 9’ 6” Doug Haut “Toughlite”, Santa Cruz, California
• 10’ Surf Tech, Soft Top, Santa Cruz, California

The Club also has a new surf board storage and repair rack where you can easily wax and make repairs to your board. The rack stores up to eight surfboards under the shade of a palapa roof.
