Maria's is Puerto Rico's most iconic wave, a world-class right-hander that peels along a shallow coral reef in Rincon. The spot hosted the 1968 World Surfing Championship, putting PR on the global surfing map. The long, peeling right starts in a bowl section near an exposed rock and zips along the reef, with urchins and shallow coral making booties essential. East-southeast trade winds blow offshore, keeping conditions clean through most of the winter swell season.
