About Rincon
Rincon is a point on the coast of southern California, at the boundary between Santa Barbara and Ventura counties, where a creek has built a point of smooth, rounded stones out into the sea. The wave runs to the right as a surfer rides it towards the shore and is often described as very long, passing through sections that surfers have given their own names. It is widely known by the nickname Queen of the Coast, and it has been surfed since the 1930s. The best surf typically arrives in the northern winter, most often from around November to March, when north-west swells reach the coast. The water is generally cool and the point is often crowded on good days. A main road and a railway line run behind it.
