El Salvador Surf Tours

El Salvador borders Guatemala to the northwest and Honduras to the northeast with the Pacific Ocean to the south. The southern coastline that runs the entire length of the country is split down the middle, with everywhere east of La Libertad (a small port town) referred to as the "East Coast," and everywhere west of La Libertad known as the "West Coast."

The East Coast is known for great tourist beaches like Costa Del Sol, beautiful mangrove lagoons, and the Las Flores righthand point break.

The West Coast is great for fishing and diving, and is where you'll find Playa El Tunco. Playa El Tunco in El Salvador has become world famous for its waves, its natural beauty, warm waters and year round tropical climate. It is located only 30 minutes from the airport and the capital San Salvador. Here is El Salvador's only lefthand point break, La Bocana; and the most sought after wave in El Salvador, El Sunzal, which is a slow, consistent wave that caters to surfers of every skill level.

El Salvador has a very tropical climate. Summer lasts from November to April and rainy season from May to October. During these months it generally rains in the late afternoon and evening. The dark sand beaches in El Salvador come from volcanic origin and the water temperature ranges from 25°C to 29°C so you can surf in boardies all year round.

In past times there were public Temascales in every small village so that everybody could experience the healing properties of it. These healing properties were not only for curing physical illness, but spiritual ones too. A Temascal bath strengthens the spirit and the soul, and is a place for people to think and make vital decisions in their lives. There is a massage room as well.
