I guess I'm guilty
.....I posted a photo of a rarely surfed left hander ( rarely surfed cause it pretty much sucks)... Man what a rash af crap I got from a couple of
buddies who think it is some big secret...people go there all the time but don't surf it because there are alot better waves to be had close by....but
it was still a photo blasted out over the internet for thousands to see...i deleted it... out of respect for my buddies...no gps coords given, no
directions, just a photo...is that wrong?? I dunno... I could see if it was some super quality wave that no one knew about ( are there any left?)...
ahh well. it made me think though...its not just an email out to some friends..

Is this the campo that's right next door to (and owned by the same family as) Campo La Joya?

In 1967, there was just 3 campos: 'Percebu', Nuevo Mazatlan (Agua de Chale), and Coloradito between San Felipe and Speedy's Camp near Puertecitos.
In 1971, Bahia Santa Maria, La Roca and a couple more to the south were created.
In 1983 the new (dirt) highway was built closer to the coast than the old Puertecitos road was... that had served the sulfur mine originally. Paving
took another 10 years... so thin that it lasted a very short time... Re paving to Km. 32 (Nuevo Mazatlan) about 4 years ago, and that is finally being
extended this year...
Tons of campos popped up along the entire coast over the next 20 years... The exception is the mangrove and salt flat backed 'Shell Island' being
inside the federal zone (thank God).

That's what I thought. So, I have a question you may be able to answer. In March, I was scouting around for a campo to lease land at. I liked what I
saw at Playa Linda. There were a couple of lots available (one row behind the beach row), and the owner happened to be in residence, but running
around somewhere. So, we came back later in the afternoon, he showed us around, we discussed price, terms, etc ... all was good right up until the
point where I explained that my immediate plans were to set up a trailer on the lot and perhaps build up a place poco a poco.
That's when I was informed that trailers are not welcome at Playa Linda. You understand, people have thousands of dollars invested and they really
don't want to look on a TRAILER next door. Given the history of the campos, I found this be to an ... interesting perspective. Do you have an
explanation perhaps?

Grover,who needs wax?
"If having fun is the ultimate goal, a whinefest and stinkeye marathon on strangers doesn't exactly get the aloha flowing."
Says it all !
I can remember surfing in others domain. The locals reaction was well, pretty much the same reception everywhere.
Of course, San Blas was only there for those in the know. We would photograph the more serious and experienced guys(sorry gals weren't there). This
was a great way to meet and get accepted as someone who"should" be there. Even tho were not as hot as some of those dudes we were welcomed to their
camps. I don't know how they get along these days but I always gave plenty of berth to the more experienced. There is always some greedy wavehog
types no matter where you go it seems.  On the water or on the land. On the
water they take ALL the waves. On land they take ALL the surprise.

You got me on that one... Typically, that kind of behavior is frowned on by the locals...
Punta Estrella and Punta Diggs is about that distance south, and I always camped further south.
Got any pictures?

i heard the exact same story about the trailers even though the place i
have is indeed a trailer but it was there before most of the nice houses on the beach(which are all relatively new)....acording to what i was told is
that they have some kind of HOA there that decided they arent to stoked on the trailers and will not allow any more into the camp and may possibly get
rid of the existing ones in the future...the upside is that if you look around and talk to a few people down that way you will probably hear what I
did...which is that Playa Linda is one of the best run campo's of the whole area due to the fact they always have water and thievery is not really an
issue there like at some of the other campo's...and btw it is also one of the most expensive at about 1200$ a year for a lot lease,all in all its a
great place to be and I wish I was there right now

I agree, it's a great place and seems well run. The water is a big plus too. That's why I was interested in leasing there. Might be getting a little
snooty though.

It is funny but true. as peple get older even surfers they put there nose up in the air for doing just what they did when they were younger.

because the people in the front row with the real nice houses are
spending mucho bucko's,some as much as 200,000$...so apparently they dont want no trailer trash living behind them to me the whole idea of spending that much money on a place youre only at part time is kind of ridiculous,and
then telling others around you how they should live is even more ridiculous but of course that is just my opinion....oh and just to let you know i've
been down there about 4 times in the last 6 months(mostly holidays) and almost every time i'd say 75% of those houses were vacated
