K 55

K-55 (also referred to as K-55 1/2 and Campo Lopez) is an exposed point-break surf spot in Baja Norte, known for consistently working surf through the year. Sources describe a rocky reef/rock bottom with a long, fun ride potential, though both the handedness (left vs right) and some performance details vary between providers. What remains consistent is the spot’s exposed nature and the emphasis on solid swell—especially from the west/NW direction—to fully “activate” the break. Wind typically aligns with improved offshore conditions, with January highlighted as the best month by the surf-forecast baseline. One provider describes the pattern as featuring offshore northeast winds and notes a clean-vs-blown split (44% blown, 56% clean). Another provider describes lighter offshore tendencies most often in mornings. Regardless of which exact configuration you see day-to-day, the spot’s wind effect is described as highly tied to offshore direction and swell. Safety is a major theme: multiple sources list rocks as the primary hazard, and another provider also flags rip currents during larger swells plus urchins. Low tide is specifically called out as exposing additional rocks that complicate entry and exit. Rescue/lifeguard presence is described as none/no, so conditions can be unforgiving—especially if the wave holds size and becomes “scary” on bigger days. Overall, K-55 is presented as a good fit for intermediate surfers aiming for consistent point-break sessions, with advanced surfers also mentioned in some accounts. Crowd expectations are generally low—unlikely to be overly crowded even when surf is up—though weekend conditions can bring moderate crowds in the broader seasonal pattern reported by a provider. The recommended approach is to plan for rocky access, confirm parking/access constraints around the Kilometer 55 area, and time sessions around the right swell window and tide.
