Playa Punta Borinquen

Playa Punta Borinquen is an NNW-facing beach break in Maleza Baja, Puerto Rico. It picks up swell from SW and WSW and NW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 32% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SSE: light winds or SSE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NNW onshores chop it up.
