About 4.5 hours south of the San Ysidro border is a little town named Camalu. Right before you reach Camalu there’s a turn-off onto a dirt road that stretches 3.5 miles to the coast. On that coast there’s a community of empty homes that wait eagerly for their owners to visit. Owned mainly by surfers, these homes stretch maybe a quarter mile along the coast, next to the surf break called “Shipwrecks”. My wife and her family have been coming here since she was a child. What started as tent camping turned into staying in a trailer, which turned into building a home once my in-laws retired. I’m fascinated by the design of these homes - desert meets Mediterranean, meets surf shack.

Ok, can I squeeze in a photo of my cute little Baby Ruah??
The mornings can be cloudy in the summer but usually by noon, the clouds are gone, the sun is out and the winds have picked up. The water is cold are year long and we wear wetsuits and booties while surfing. The winter is best for sunrise photos and sunsets.
