Will be heading down Hwy 5 next month. With the new road from Gonzaga to Hwy 1 completed, does anyone know if there is there a turnoff for Coco's? Or
will I need to take the old dirt road? I'd like to visit with Coco again, but only if there is a short dirt section to get to his place. Any responses
will be greatly appreciated.Bajazly - 2-24-2020 at 11:16 PM
The old dirt road is a thing of the past for the most part. The turn off is pretty well marked and the road is good from the north or at least was a
couple months ago when we came out that way.Mulege Canuck - 2-25-2020 at 07:31 AM
If your heading west from Gonzaga you will see a road junction with a bunch of plastic barrels with spray paint noting free camping at Cocos. 10 min
drive to cocos From there. We double backed to get back on the pavement.David K - 2-25-2020 at 08:18 AM
South from Gonzaga, we have been told it is at Km. 179.5. Lots of signs at the junction. It is 4 miles to Coco's from the highway.
We do not have any feedback on the road's south junction, in the canyon.mjs - 2-25-2020 at 08:45 AM
Also signed at the south junction. That part of the old road is rougher. It's probably faster to continue north on the new road to the north junction
and then detour to Coco's David K - 2-25-2020 at 08:51 AM

I would appreciate the kilometer markers at the south junction from anybody who can note it. AKgringo - 2-25-2020 at 10:48 AM
I should be passing that way from the south in about a week, I will check out the road and report back if no one else does first.JZ - 2-25-2020 at 10:54 AM

You need to record a track and post it! David K - 2-25-2020 at 11:05 AM

Sound good. We'll be heading south on Hwy 5, so the north detour will work for us. Coming back north all the way on Hwy 1. Thanks to all for the
replies.David K - 2-26-2020 at 08:29 AM

Please note what Km. marker (or between what markers) that the south access to Coco's meets Hwy. 5. Thanks!chuckie - 2-26-2020 at 09:03 AM
Anyone (like JZ) that cant find Coco's with out help, should stay in Oxnard....
