Amazing photo pilfered from Magic Seaweed, taken by Arrobo. Pascuales is a crushing beach break in Colima near Tecoman. Legend has it that the break is even more dangerous when it’s small as it breaks in shallower water.
A friend went down about a month ago and came back with stories from a heavy swell. The waves were 8 meters (25 feet) and the only people who could get in the water were tow-ins, save one loco guy who hand-paddled into and successfully rode the largest wave of the swell. This is the stuff of legends.

We almost made the trip up from Nexpa when it was small, heard it’s Puerto’s twin. Don’t think we would have been doing anything there at size though.
