El Salvador Beaches | El Salvador Hotels | El Salvador Resorts El Salvador

El Salvador is bathed by the warm waters of the Pacific Ocean in the south. From "La Barra de Santiago" in the Department of Ahuachapan to the beaches of "El Tamarindo" in the Department of La Union, El Salvador has 184 miles of Pacific Ocean coastline. The tropical climate and beauty of its scenery make of the Salvadoran Pacific Coast one of the favorite spots to be visited by nationals and tourists. The beach scenery is made up of a series of geological structures such as cliffs and large rock formations covered with tropical vegetation. From the West to the East Coast, El Salvador has many beaches that can be easily accessed because they are interconnected by the "Litoral" Highway.

El Cuco (East Coast)

Is a beauty by itself, being the widest and longest beach in the country.

El Sunzal

El Sunzal is located 10 Min. away from La Libertad. This is a right point that can hold the biggest swell you can imagine. There is only a very reduced place to park and there is no Beach(Sand) On regular days though it´s a very crowed spot mainly for beginners, you have to paddle a lot and the wave doesn´t have any power. On a Big day 12 + feet you can have lots of fun!
You should try it but if you are really looking for some excitement this ain´t the place.

El Zonte

Playa El Zonte is located in Km 53 Carretera del Litoral, 15 Min. away from La Libertad. This is a right point and holds waves until 6 Feet.
There are only a few Locals and they are very friendly. Horizonte SurfCamp owned by Saburo is located right in front of the action. This place it´s known because even in a really bad day you will be able to score some waves. The Point is protected from the wind by a Cliff, this makes it a very clean spot almost all the time.
