Maria's Beach is Rincon's best surfing spot, originally rising to international acclaim after hosting the 1968 World Surfing Championship, the first televised surfing event shown as part of ABC's Wide World of Sports programming.
The beach, which was formerly known as Rincon Point, is now named in honor of Maria Garcia, the original owner of the Maria's luxury oceanfront vacation rental site. Shady palm trees cover the beautiful beachfront, with some of the Caribbean's most exciting and lively waves offered throughout the year.
During the summer months, the beachfront is a popular Caribbean tourist destination. Surfing competitions continue to be held at the site periodically, including the 2007 World Surfing Championships.
