Another crazy marina project is slated for the K-39 reef. The above image from the Stop The K39 Port Project petition shows exactly how the marina will also destroy K-38 and have a huge impact on the surrounding environment. Please forward this to every surfer you know. We need to get 200 more petition sign ons. Local surfers in Northern Baja are helping to fight this project.

Too bad but what do you expect. It’s the surf stupid. First they walled off 38′s. Then they put a faux pirat ship at Califia. Next was a Wall around Mushrooms followed by this MARINA PROJECT. That 100 foot statue to Jesus will cry bloody tears when those greedy bastards take away the reefs.
My question is who is financing the project? Much of the construction in Baja is being done by U.S. investors. Just take a look at what has happened in Cabo San Lucas! Even here in San Diego county, access to the beach is becoming more limited. If we can’t prevent it here, how are we going to stop it in another country!
What make this one different is that the entire project is to be constructed in the “marine zone”. That can’t happen without full cooperation from the Mexican Government.
Cooperation from the Mexican govenment is just a matter of payola. Personally i like K38 the way it is now. Uncrowded and out of sight from the toll road. Lots of big projects come and go in Baja without completion. Hopefully the slow economy and fear of travelling south of the border will kill this one.
After reading more about this project im convinced its a disaster in the making. First the marine habitat will be distroyed. Next without natural protection the marina will be distroyed by storms. Leaving an environmental mess that no one is going to clean up. This is way way a bad idea.
This is probably part of the Escalera Nautica project.
this whole thing stinks worse than the fish market in ensenada.
Who the hell surfs in Baja anymore anyway? Until the Mexican government can assure our safety, no American should be contributing to their economy down there. Who cares, good riddance!
Northern Baja is a f—-ng dump and I will never go back. I do sympathize with the local Mexican surfers however who have to live there. An escape for these guys/girls is surfing good waves.
I agree with the last two posts, Baja used to be a special place, now it’s just a corrupt shit hole! Unless the Mexican government takes back the control of it’s country from the cartels, I could care less if that place burns to the ground!
I agree- the greed and corruption will probably prevail, the Mexican developers don’t care. Also who in the right mind would keep their boat there. I am very familiar with this exact area- had a place down there for 15 yrs- just gave it up- place is too spooky. Too bad lots of good people and good surf-bad place to invest in any real estate- I couldn’t give my place away- no one wants to go down -at least my friends so we are out of their- go way south much safer and not the bs of this area and the boarder. Hope they don’t get away with this the locals (surfers will feel it the worst) the business people could care less unless they surf
bastards!
