A lot of friends ask: What is Rincon like?Aside from great weather and some of the best surf we've ever experienced, there is a short documentary on Rincon from Surfrider Foundation called Salva Tres Palmas. The movie can be seen on Surfrider's website (in both English and Spanish). We recommend it highly.
Salva Tres Palmas tells the story of the environmental victory that gave life to Tres Palmas Marine Reserve, the first marine reserve on the main island of Puerto Rico—in Rincon. There are lots of characters we recognize from living here, as well as being an informative film about the environmental hazards that face Rincon.
Aside from that, DANG Factory also designed a poster—and book—for Arte Acuatico, a project sponsored by NOAA's Marine Debris Program and is part of the educational component of the ambitious community driven program "Coral Reef Protection through Marine Debris Removal at Reserva Marina Tres Palmas," where more than 475 tires have been removed, among other debris.
Opening night of Arte Acuatico takes place on Thursday, June 25 at Rincon of The Seas, 7-9 p.m. The show features kids' art from surrounding schools in Rincon and runs all the way to July 9. We hope you can make it!
See you out there,
