Indicators
Edit SpotAbout
Some of my best days surfing have been here.
Atmosphere:
Rincon is very laid back, the locals wont mess with you but be respecful and dont overstep. If you look for trouble, I guarantee you'll find it.
Additional Info:
No channel so entrance can be challenging. Very nice hollow rights, can get insane barrels if you time it right.
Can sometimes be surfed almost alone while Marias next door is crowded because people fear it. And with reason. Very shallow and very powerful right. You dont want to go over the falls or get caught inside.
