What is the ocean like? Is it safe to go in the water?
Yes, the water is very safe. I have never heard of any shark attacks. We are on the calm water swimming (south) side of Rincon. The water is a warm 82 plus degrees year round. At the waters edge, there is a smooth rock ledge which extends out about 30 feet and is about 4 feet deep. This makes for great swimming. If you enjoy snorkeling, check out the fish that hang out at the far end of the rock ledge. Caution: We can not guarantee great weather, calm waters, etc. Weather and storms come and go and so does the size of the waves. But, Most of the time we have gentle waves, clear water, and a nice sandy beach. A short distance away on the north side of the point is where the surfers go, which is considered the surf side because the waves are greater than the south side.
