Killers (Isla Todos Santos)

Isla Todos Santos, Mexico
😮‍💨Hold-downs🏝️Remote🦈Sharks🪨Rocks

Killers at Isla Todos Santos is the West Coast's answer to Mavericks and Jaws—a world-class big wave spot where underwater canyons focus and amplify winter swells to terrifying proportions. Located on a small island 12 miles off Ensenada, the wave can hold faces of 60+ feet when the right storm tracks send massive NW swells down the coast. The remote location, cold water, and extreme power make this a proving ground for elite big wave surfers only.
