María's Beach

Playa María

A classic surf beach just south of the lighthouse, lined with restaurants and bars, where the sun sets into the Mona Passage, the scene of Rincón's iconic sunset postcards.

Playa María lies south of Punta Igüero and is one of Rincón's earliest famous surf breaks. Winter swells are consistent, making it suitable for intermediate surfers. Behind the beach stands a row of surf hostels and bars, where you can eat while watching the surfers. There are many reefs underwater, so swimmers should wear water shoes and keep an eye on the surf. A coastal walk from here leads to Steps Beach and Lighthouse Park.
