Travel Info


When to go

The best time to visit is from November to April. Outside of that, it is the rainy season, but also when they have their biggest surf waves.

Cost

About 25-30$/day (2008). For today's prediction visit this website.

How long do I need

It always depends on your travel speed, but for most, I would say under 10 days.

Personal Highlights


  • Ruta de las Flores
  • The beach of Libertad: A great spot to surf or to learn (if you are as bad as me).
  • Playa El Tunco: Touristic, but still worth it.
  • National parks: Explore Parque Nacional El Imposible and Parque Nacional Los Volcanes.

Pictures


Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures from my trip to El Salvador. Read the blog post: "Got Robbed All my Pictures, Twice!", to know more about it.
