 Rincón is known as "El Pueblo de los Bellos Atardeceres" (the town of beautiful sunsets)

Rincon Puerto Rico has been welcoming visitors since 1770, although many believe that Columbus paid us a brief visit in 1493. Local legends tell about the Pirate Cofresí and of his hidden treasure, which could still be buried in our shores and hills. Indeed, Spanish treasure has been found in the clear shallow waters and in the hills of Rincon.

 The Punta Higuero Lighthouse was built by the Spaniards in the early 1890s and was rebuilt in 1921. This lighthouse still in use and it uses an unmanned 26,000-candlepower rotating beacon.   There is also an observation park for whale watching. Endangered humpback whales visit in the winter.

During the late 1950's, Sea Beach Colony, a quaint collection of beach bungalows and streamline trailers, was the first Rincon Puerto Rico vacation resort. In 1968, Rincon Puerto Rico became the surfing capital of the world, attracting young visitors from all over the world, to participate in an international surfing competition. Since then, Rincon is a major surf destination around the world. There are numerous beaches that break anywhere from 2' to 25'+. Puerto Rico's famous big-wave spot, Tres Palmas is located next to Rincón Beach.

Other favorite waves to ride are located few minutes from the town such as Steps, Maria’s & Domes.  Rincon has warm tropical water and off-shore winds on the west side.   In 2007, Rincon hosted the ISA World Masters where local surfer Juan Ashton won 1st place in the Masters division.
