Description

Scorpion Bay - Baja California Sur Scorpion Bay features a right-point break with a reef bottom composed of coral and sharp rocks, offering hollow to fun waves. The spot is known for its inconsistency, with a limited swell window and unreliable Baja surf forecasts due to its location within a bay. It works best at low and mid tides during rising tide conditions. Accessing Scorpion Bay requires a rugged off-road journey of 100-300 kilometers through harsh desert terrain, starting from the Tijuana border. The camping area is situated on a lava rock bluff, providing a basic experience with cold showers and limited water. Despite its challenges, the spot attracts few surfers during the week, making it a potential haven for those seeking solitude. However, caution is advised due to sharp rocks and the unpredictable nature of the waves.
