| El Salvador (the indigenous called it Cuzcatlán, which means "Land of Precious Jewels"), has 320 km of beaches on the Pacific Ocean, with many majestic volcanos, marvelous lakes and lagoons, tropical forests, natural parks and impressive archeological sites. As a result, this small, hardly discovered country offers a large diversity of attractions. |  |
El Salvador has not developed their tourist industry the way say, Costa Rica has. The major activities tend to be self-guided, and self-propelled.

The city of Sihuapilapa invites visitors to one of the most beautiful landscapes of the Pacific coast in El Salvador. And for surfers, the beach El Sunzal is ideal. The most famous beach is possibly Costa del Sol. Here many hotels are located directly on the beach. The most beautiful and largest beach, however, is said to be El Cuco.

From La Barra de Santiago in Ahuachapan Department to the set of beaches of El Tamarindo in Union Department, the country has over three hundred kilometers of Pacific shoreline. With a tropical climate and beautiful rock and cliff formations and lush vegetation, Salvador's coast is frequented by tourists and citizens. |
