Hey:
march is one of the best months of the season. Be prepared to surf world class waves. You just have to go northwest, Rincon, Aguadilla,Aguada,Isabela etc.
I think ten days its not going to be enough thou.

September surf in PR
September its the beginning of the surf season. We have the north swells coming from the states but most important its the peak of the hurricane season.The official website of the tourist company is www.gotopuertorico.com. there is a lot of good info under the Porta Del Sol slogan. Surf rentals are very easy to find at jobos beach in isabela or in Rincon. I think you need to rent a car to move around. From Isabela To Rincon its a half an hour trip. My advise would be that you should stay in hotel the first couple of day until you find a cheaper place, because these places are everywhere but are hard to find online. Good luck!

Prep Time
Visited this beach for the first time to get a feel for it, looks fun but I was told that it's only good during the summer and if storms hit in the caribbean. Still will visit a few more times before the year ends to paddle and eventually surf.
