Playa Mar Chiquita

Playa Mar Chiquita is an NNE-facing beach break in Comunidad La Mona, Puerto Rico. It picks up swell from WNW and NW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 37% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SSW: light winds or SSW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NNE onshores chop it up.
