Mostly they face away from the beach toward inland. It's believed they were watching over the villages. If you mean compass direction they didn't face any particular compass direction, or they faced various compass directions, whichever you prefer.

What direction should you face the Virgin Mary statue?

It does not matter as there are no pronouncements from the Vatican or in Church Tradition on which direction statues should face. However, it is Church tradition that Mass is said, and inferred to an extent, that we should pray, towards the East, towards the rising sun, as a symbol of Christ's Resurrection. So by that logic the statues would face west. None of this is binding however, except for the building of churches which always has the congregation (and before Vatican II, the Priest) facing east.
