Shipwrecks

Shipwrecks is a beach break located on Mexico's Pacific coast in Baja California Sur, where a sandy beach meets open ocean waters. The coastline faces northeast, creating a natural funnel for wind patterns. The shallow nearshore zone and river delta features visible in the satellite imagery indicate a complex bathymetry with sandbars and channels. This spot is characterized by minimal wave energy and extremely low wind reliability, making it primarily suitable for beginners and light-wind specialists. The shallow water provides safety for novice kiters but limits performance potential. Best winds approach from the northwest (315°), providing side-shore conditions parallel to the beach. Kiters should be aware of shallow areas near shore, visible rocky formations, and the unpredictable wind pattern typical of this location. The low average wind speed (5.3 knots) and negligible wind reliability suggest this is not a reliable year-round destination and should only be attempted during seasonal wind events.
