Located in Northern Baja, Mexico, Rosarito Beach is a decent beach break that offers up a couple of sandbanks as well as a pier that holds together some sandbars. The waves here are easy to surf and break for up to 100 meters over a sandy bottom. Check around for some sandy reefs up and down the beach as well.
