used to be an actual campground but now it's just the remains. quiet, nice, and an outhouse with a shipwreck on the beach.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Waves were a disappointment! Rock shore that sounds like pop rocks though!
Report Check-InBasic beach set up with pit toilets. 200 pesos per night. Locals seem friendly.

Report Check-Inlovely spot! $10 a night to camp on the cast. right near great surf (shipwrecks/freighters). near some houses with very hospitable people. you can buy firewood if you arrive before dark. pit toilets and nice flush toilets with sinks too!
Report Check-InGreat place although a little epensive. about a 10-15 minute drive down a fairly smooth road, no 4x4 needed. Very peaceful adn level for parking. 200 pesos per night to the attendent as you enter the beach!
Report Check-InGreat place... very safe. 200 pesos per night... pay to the attendent as you enter the place.
Report Check-InWe arrived just after sunset. Some local came over with an official looking receipt book requesting 200mp for the night. We tried negotiating the price but he wasnt having it.It felt safe enough but the price was a little high for parking on the side of the road.
Report Check-InLove this place! Incredible views. Stayed one night, had place to myself. No one bothered me and it was very quiet. Full moon, the roar of the surf and songs of the birds. Very rocky shoreline but clean. The caretaker made me feel welcome and secure.
Report Check-InQuiet safe place by shipwreck. Ramon keeps the area and collects $5 a night. No amenities but pelicans, dolphins and ducks.. nice place..
Report Check-InSeems to be some confusion regarding the two sites. The shipwreck and surfbreak itself are inside a gated gringo community with 24hr security and pit toilets. Free to park and surf and $5 usd or $100 mex to camp for the night. Just outside the northern fence is an abandoned campground with palapas, access looks flooded and sketch. The poverty along the coast surrounding this area is pretty striking, basically a shanty town of families collecting rocks to export to the USA.
Report Check-InI don't know what happened with the road this summer, but it was so bad, I turned around after 600 meters. I can't imagine doing 5-7km like that without my truck falling apart.. I went to the other one beside (el pirata) for 150 pesos/night (water/electricity/wifi). the road was bad too but its only 1km
Report Check-InParking next to long pebble beach, to the far right of the ship. The beach is lined with American homes but parking is to the far end just past the last house. Surf isnt really happening you have to get lucky this time of year. The guy who collects money was a total jerk to us, just pulled up in his car holding the horn in till we ran up and asked what he wanted, he proceeded to ignore my questions and demand $5 for....I don’t know what. Overcast and a bit gloomy while we were here.
Report Check-InIt's not a usual campsite, it's more like parking next to the beach with pit toilets. No showers. A security guy takes care about the place and collects 100 Pesos/5 USD per Night per Car/Tent. The area around the shipwreck is fenced and some people living here, mostly americans. The empty houses are to rent or belonging to Surf camps. The Road in is a good newly prepared Gravelroad. Doable with all kind of vehicles.
The "beach" is rocky and the Surf beginner-friendly with mostly sand-bottom (some stones when you go in). Water was cold (April) so take your Wetsuit with shoes. Stayed here some nights with 3 other campers, slept well and felt safe. We had the area and waves for our own...maybe it changes in the main season/summer.
safe (1 guard, days and, 2, nights) no full time residents here
Report Check-InDon't expect something nice from this place unless if you are looking for big waves for surfing. There is no sand beach, just o lot of rocks. The 7 km dirt road from the highway is bad enough for a motorhome.
Report Check-In15mins or so down a dirt road. went slow on my overloaded bike. showed up on a long weekend & there was about 15ppl surfing here. there was 2x guards (one at night, one in the day) they live there. paid $5/night. little store in town for water & snax.
Report Check-InWe stayed 2 nights and it was nice. Ramon the guard is the nicest person ever. Invite him for a snack or to eat. We paid 5$ because we park in front of a house but other than that is free. Good for a surf also.
Report Check-Indrive through the old gate and to the right till the end of the row of houses. The next morning an old man came and had us pay 5 USD. It is all fenced in so that's probably ok.
