La Conchita Beach is a chill surf spot located just south of Rincon along the highway. This beach is known for its peaky beach breaks and is a solid choice for surfers looking for fun waves. It's a reliable spot, especially during the summer months when conditions can be pretty good. The area doesn't get too crowded, so there’s often plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the surf.
The surf here works best with swell from the west, but southwest and northwest swells can also bring in some good waves. It handles swell sizes starting from about 1 ft (0.3 m) and peaks nicely with mid to high tides. You can expect both left and right waves, which is great if you like to switch things up. For the best conditions, aim for northeast winds, which help to create clean, glassy waves. Lower tides can make the waves more hollow, but when it’s high tide, you might deal with some backwash and less favorable, mushy waves.
La Conchita Beach is a good spot for intermediate surfers. The sandy bottom provides a forgiving surface for those still working on their skills. Just park along the highway and head down to catch some fun waves!
