Parking Lots is a popular surf spot on Puerto Rico's northwest coast near Rincón, known for its consistent beach break waves that peel nicely during the winter swell season. The spot faces south along its transect but receives excellent northwest Atlantic swells that wrap around the coastline, producing punchy, hollow peaks ideal for shortboarding and bodyboarding. Its accessibility and reliable surf make it a go-to destination for locals and traveling surfers exploring Puerto Rico's world-class northwest surf corridor.
