Its an excellent tool for surfing or just visiting Baja. I've only done north but his descriptions and tips are perfectly accurate. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Well done. *by J***F on Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2021* Very well researched in every possible subject you’re likely to come across. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Great for experienced Baja surfers, necessary for novices. *by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2013* If you are a serious Baja surfer of the past two or three decades, you've probably relied on a hodgepodge of information, including: The Surf Report (now Surfer Magazine Travel Guides), Surfline, nautical charts, AAA maps, Google Earth, and assorted actual exploration, legends, lies and myths to score waves in Baja. This book is the best amalgamation of that data we've seen yet.While we've only made one quick Baja trip since buying the guide, it was pored over from the backseat of our vehicle for hours at a time by Baja veterans of 100+ excursions, and found to have a lot of great and correct information, with few serious errors. Truthfully, this is about as good as you can get for this wonderful, low population, high surf part of the planet.So, if you are a veteran, looking for the best in collated Baja gouge, this is it.Need an example? Here's an easy, interesting one. The campground at K58, with the big sign that has read Alisitos for at least 17 years is also known as La Fonda. Maybe you knew that, or maybe you've been wondering where the hell this mythical beach break called La Fonda is -- is it like Blacks at Torrey Pines? La Fonda is, indeed, the southern end of Alisitos.You may be wondering if the guide is similarly good for inexperienced Baja surfers. Best $20 you'll spend! Your alternative is 20 years in a labor of love putting together mismatched data points.And, if you're a Baja road tripper? Not a surfer, but a camper, fisherman, etc? Probably not for you -- it is a true "Surfer's Guide". Many thanks to Mike Parise, the author, for staying the course and focusing on our limited, but highly detail-oriented audience.What could be better? Other than more break-specific details (e.g. "Slopey, fun right point with occasional steep barrelly lefts, usually working best on a tide push and solid SW swell of over 4 feet, rarely on a NW unless over 10. If swell is too small, beachbreak just north of point always has something. Usual paddle out is from the keyhole in the reef just south of the big bird-s*** covered rock"), not much.Thankfully, Mike has left a lot of this up to us, and one surfer to another, that may be the only thing keeping a bunch of jetski-towing, meth-head, knuckleheads from showing up at your favorite spot mid-swell.Be safe and enjoy this excellent book! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/5793841-the-surfers-guide-to-baja](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/5793841-the-surfers-guide-to-baja) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
