Dogman's is a quality reef break in Rincon that produces both lefts and rights, favoring rights, over a shallow reef that's more exposed than neighboring Maria's. The waves are fast and well-formed — sectiony at the start, then smoother and bowlier toward the end. Less crowded than Maria's, it's a good option for advanced surfers wanting to avoid the main crowd while still scoring quality Rincon reef surf.
