The terrific surfing and scene at El Tunco Beach

The closest of the major beaches to capital San Salvador (just 45 minutes away), it´s not necessarily the most beautiful – black volcanic sand dotted with grey stones – but the consistent swells have made it El Salvador´s surfing capital. That plus its closeness to San Salvador have also made El Tunco one of the country´s most popular beaches, with a cool, funky, fun atmosphere and plenty of bars, restaurants, and places to stay. It´s quieter on weekdays but turns into quite the party town on weekends, including nighttime beach bonfires and musical performances. And no matter what time of the week you visit, this strand is known for its spectacular sunsets.
