[otto73]

Just looking for unbiased info from someone who has actually visited the Troncones area in Mexico or the north coast of Domin. Republic---No i dont think every tourist spot owner nor local surfer is dishonest,,,but u know how it is,,,,camp owner says consistent surf and no crowds,,,,local says sharks and flat 3/4 the time.........thanx for any help

Alright just got back from mexico stayed in jihuentinago(not right spelling but near enough) surfed las gatas (very good but inconsistent lots of sharp coral but loads of good looking chicitas watching) also Playa linda(very sharky and apparently a few crocs but never saw nothing ,consistently 4 to5 ft) also Escolleras ( shite 6ft dumping beach break) and Saladitas (very long 200+ rides but need a mal or long board).
Also went to Puerto escondidas and La punta ,you can always find a wave but mexico is a hell of alot more expensive than people think !!!Bali"S much cheaper and less chance of having a gun put to your head.
