Stopped in Acapulco for a couple hours just to catch the next bus to Puerto Escondido.  This is definetly my new favorite spot.  Once a small sleepy surf town with perfect waves, Puerto is now blowing up and becoming a major tourist destination.  Itīs still relatively small but as I write this there are people working on a new Malecon outside and numerous hostels/hotels already developed with more to come.  Kind of sad actually but with waves like this its inevitable that the place could stay off the radar.  Not only that but the town is chill, people from all over the world seem to hang out, I could spend months... maybe live here.  The waves are pretty f*ing heavy.  Iīll get some better pics/video when its not so blown out...
Oh man, the wave got big a couple days after we got here, probly like 12-15 faces, heavy, but then backed down to around 6 foot, 8 on the big sets.  We surfed that day, fun, but still pretty damn heavy.
