Location
Loading...Access
To access the spot you must walk from a town called La Entrada (another surf spot) and walk to the spot (impossible to use car here). It's a good walk because you have to walk on rocks and remember to go at low tide. The other way is by the street but then it's hard to find a parking spot. Ask natives for La Rinconada and they will be more than happy to take you.
