Here's the most detailed, most current guide for surfers heading to Mexico's surf-packed Baja peninsula. This guide features over 120 breaks, including the legendary points, reefs, beachbreaks and even islands. From Tijuana to Cabo and around to the East Cape, with maps, travel tips, wave height chart, tips on when to go where, accommodations and more. Created in the same style as the very popular THE SURFER'S GUIDE TO COSTA RICA & SW NICARAGUA as it's written by the same author. There is no better guide for surfers heading to Baja. Updated yearly.

About the Author
Mike Parise started surfing over 30 years ago. His first surf travel guide, THE SURFER'S GUIDE TO COSTA RICA has sold over 25,000 copies and is still considered the best of its kind. With Baja being right next door to his native California, it only made sense to follow up the Costa Rica guide with one like it for Baja. When not working on this labor of love, Mike does real work as an advertising executive in Los Angeles.

Great guide
Basics of how and where are well covered -- and not too much about the actual surf is detailed. As it should be. Best Baja guide out there.
Basic
To tell the truth I was kind of disappointed when I got this book and started reading through it. It has some good info on getting down to and around Baja, but it wasn't as detailed as I thought it was going to be. I guess I was expecting more detailed maps/directions to all the spots it talks about in the book. It has descriptions of all of them, but not really directions to all of them. But I guess it's better than just going down there and wingin' it.
if you are headed south of the border to surf or camp you need this book.
I think I have covered all the basics in the title of this review. Bacically, if you are planning to head south of the border and explore Mexico's Baja coast then you need this book. Plain and simple do not go without it. enjoy!
