Surf spot guide · Northeast Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico
Pine Grove is a popular, mellow beach break near San Juan suitable for all levels.
Pine Grove is located in Isla Verde, just east of San Juan, offering consistently mellow waves perfect for beginners and intermediates. The sandy bottom and gradual slope make it a safe and inviting spot, especially during smaller swells. It’s a favorite for surf schools and longboarders, but can get punchier with larger winter swells. The lineup can become crowded with both locals and tourists, particularly on weekends and holidays. Facilities and rentals are available nearby, adding to its convenience. Early mornings often provide the cleanest conditions and lighter crowds.
