But the history of land ownership in this part of the world is convoluted. This video dives into what on earth is happening in Pavones.

The SUP surfers take all the set waves, then I was getting cut off when I did catch a wave on the outside. It's getting built up and Americanized. My first trip there was 1992. Wild jungle back then. I took my wife there on our honeymoon and we camped on the point right next to the river claro. It was pretty awesome. Still is I'm sure. The wave is great. But, I'll probably never go back. And, if I did I'd probably stay at that 5 star hotel on the point. . I'm part of the problem I'm sure. Progess...bleh...

Places where you once would literally be surfing alone are now as crowded as an average California break. Started going to El Salvador instead. Progess...bleh... ------------------------- I :heart; Q
