Fun & Activities in Rincón, Puerto Rico

If you aren't enjoying water sports in Rincon, there are lots of activities you can enjoy on land. During the winter season, head for the Lighthouse Park to watch the surfers or incredible Whale Watching. You'll also find great Horseback Riding, Parasailing, Sightseeing Tours, Day Sailing & Sunset Cruises, Skating & Skate Board Park, Yoga & Wellness and Gyms and Public Sports Complex

Check with your hotel or guest house for information on mountain biking, bird watching, hiking and nearby golf courses. Every June you'll want to join the excitement of the Rincon Triathlon. Late August is the time for our Patron Saint Festival which is held near the central plaza downtown.


Whale Watching:

Whale Watching: One of the most spectacular sights in nature is the annual migration of Humpback Whales that takes place off the coast of Rincon every winter. The peak season is in February - but whale sightings are possible as early as December and as late as March.  The Lighthouse Park is the best place to view the whales from land - although you'll see them through the waters off Rincon's beaches. If you prefer to see the whales up close - check with a dive shop or day sail tour for information on charter boat trips.
