The Rincon Classic is on! The Rincon Classic will take place on January 25th and January 26, 2020. Rincon in Spanish means angle or corner. Rincon is a surf spot located in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. Also known as the “Queen of the Coast”, Rincon is one of the most famous surf spots in California, known around the world for its well-formed waves and long rides.  The book 100 Best Surf Spots in the World rates Rincon at 24. It is best at low tide during the winter months when swells are coming mostly from the west and northwest. There is a gated residential community that occupies most of the Rincon beachfront. However, public access is provided at parking lots on both sides of the gated community, with restrooms and a picnic area in the upper parking lot, Rincon Beach Park.
