More about K-55 1/2

K-55 1/2 is a left-hand point break that peels consistently throughout the year over a rocky bottom. The wave forms as exposed swell trains approach the point, creating a fast and powerful shape that holds up well even in larger conditions. Rocks line the shoreline and form the foundation of the break itself. The best conditions pair west-facing swell with offshore northeast winds, which most commonly align during the winter months, particularly in January when clean, rideable waves appear roughly half the time.

K-55 1/2 sits along the Ensenada coastline identified by the kilometer marker system on Highway 1 in Baja California, roughly 42 kilometers south of Ensenada. The break is relatively uncrowded compared to other nearby spots, making it accessible for surfers seeking consistent waves without heavy traffic.
