Maria's surf guide

Maria's, named after a kind-hearted woman who used to offer surfers a rinse-off after sessions, is one of the most popular surf spots in Rincon. The beach is located under lush green hills, providing a scenic backdrop for your sessions. With multiple takeoff zones over a stretch of flat reef, it's a place where you can find something to ride, but expect to share the waves with a good number of other surfers. Crowds can get intense during the season, especially with a mix of locals, tourists, and different types of watercraft, including bodyboards and longboards.

The waves at Maria's are mainly right-handers that work best with northwest and northeast swells. You can expect surf sizes ranging from about 4ft to 10ft (1.2m to 3m), but the most favorable conditions usually come with lower to mid tides. The point section next to the exposed rock starts off with a nice bowl and tends to offer down-the-line walls that are suited for high-performance surfing. As it picks up size, you'll find some hollower waves, especially during strong northwest swells where you can potentially score barrels. Overall, the wave requires some down-the-line speed, particularly in smaller conditions.

Access to Maria's is easy; you can park in the lot right by Calypso Cafe. Be prepared for a lot of paddling, especially as the surf gets bigger. This spot can handle all levels of surfers but is mostly suitable for intermediate riders. If you're riding boards like shortboards, fish, funboards, longboards, or even SUP and bodyboards, you’ll find something that fits in the lineup. Keep in mind that the best seasons for consistent waves are from late fall through early spring, with prime tropical cyclone conditions surfacing in late summer and fall.

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
