Playa La Pastora
Todos Santos, Baja California Sur, Mexico
Located about 5 miles north of Todos Santos you find this break by starting in town at the Hotel California. Just east of the hotel look for a road that heads north and when you get to the bottom of the hill hang a left and continue down a dirt road for several miles and keep your eyes out for a small sign for Pastora. There is a sand lot where you can park but avoid going in deep without a 4 wheel drive vehicle, getting there is important, getting out is even more so! Once you arrive you’re in for a treat on fun breaks that go both directions and are usually not crowded.
An additional review.
Very fun break located a few miles north of Todos Santos. If you can find La Pastora you will be blessed with nice sand beach with fun rights and lefts and minimal crowd. To get there, go north just east of the old Hotel California. At the bottom of the hill, make a left and follow the dirt road several miles to the north. Keep your eyes peeled for a poorly posted Pastora sign and fork to the left. This will lead you to a sand lot (if you want to call it that) where you can park and walk to the beach. Be careful of the sand in non-4WD vehicles.
Editor’s note 01 June 2008: I am not sure if this is the correct location for this beach. It is off Calle Las Playitas, just past El Batequito. We are calling it La Pastora now until I can confirm the name.
