San Miguel, Ensenada

San Miguel, Ensenada is a WSW-facing point break in El Sauzal, Baja California, Mexico. It picks up swell from S to SSW and SSW to WNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 48% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ENE: light winds or ENE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WSW onshores chop it up.
