Rincón beach conditions

Puerto Rico's surf town, facing the sunset across the Mona Passage.

Rincón is in Rincón, Puerto Rico, on the Atlantic coast.

Rincón is Puerto Rico's surf town, on the west end of the island where the coast turns to face the Mona Passage and the sunset. Winter north swells are what built its reputation, and the same swells make it the least forgiving water Coasti covers in Puerto Rico. Tides come from the Aguadilla gauge, nine miles up the coast.
