Not the way to fight border pollution
With one exception, my dawn patrol on a recent Monday on the north side of the Imperial Beach Pier was the same solitary excursion to surf an early season south swell as it has been for the past 29 years. After I caught my first wave, the sweet chemical stench of sewage destroyed the joy that I momentarily felt from a quick tube ride. Wastewater from Tijuana spiked the waters of Imperial Beach, just as it has done for more than 300 days over the past two years.

A View from the Coast
My first memory of Imperial Beach is of bodysurfing small, low tide waves at the south end of First Street (now Seacoast Drive). After I emerged from the water, my younger brother Nicky and I wandered over to the sand dunes that lined the beach south of the Boca Rio apartments. As we ran over the dunes, the sight of the winding channels and mudflats of the Tijuana Estuary stunned us. Whooping with delight we jumped into the inviting waters of the Sloughs.
