Inches is the Patillas surf spot just off PR-3 on Puerto Rico's southeast coast. Local surf guides and Surfline describe it as one of the better summer and hurricane-swell spots in the area, with a left-point feel and rides that can run when the ESE swell is right. The bottom is reef, rock, coral, and river-stone style cobble rather than soft sand, so this belongs in the intermediate bucket.
