Good spot - Surfed this spot April '07. I timed a buddy at 1 minute and 15 seconds on 1 ride before he kicked out. Going back this year but having trouble with airlines and longboard transport.

playa saladita - i just got back from my 6th trip to saladita. we had surf all 8 days, several of them quite sizeable to the point that all the people who drove up to the ranch came back because it was too big. the crowd can be pretty fierce at times as the break holds about 15 to 20 people comfortably. one day we had 60 in the water. lots of longboarders (of which i'm not one) and lots of people dropping in on each other. a fun wave. if it gets small ask for directions to the ranch, about a half hour north as it's usually bigger there and breaks much closer in.
