Awesome Place - Surfed K59 for a week in August 2011. Swell ranged from 3.5ft at 13 seconds to 6ft at 16 seconds. Wave height never got below head high. Caught some of the best waves of my life. Unfortunatly, the place is starting to get crowded as more people are hearing about it. Even staying at one of the camps right on the point, there are still crowds because people are driving in to surf. Its not as private as they let on.

Banditos at K59 - I rarely post but this is important, and NO, I'm not a fear monger type. But if you go to K59, be sure to drive in. Surfers who ride the public bus there and walk down the road have been getting robbed. If you drive and once you get passed the gate, you are fine. If you walk down to road from the highway, you might get jacked.
