The Waves

Las Flores.
This is a beautiful sand bottom point break full of palm trees in the background. The wave starts breaking next to a rock in a fast and hollow section and keeps breaking for a couple of hundred yards for more speed more barreling sections on the way to the shore. It’s a fun high-performance wave for medium to experienced surfers. The tides play an important factor on these waves, breaking with tubular sections especially at low tide, expect some currents at low tide.

Punta Mango
This is a cobble stone right point break, surrounded by beautiful mountains located in one of El Salvador’s more remote areas. Punta Mango breaks with a nice tube in most of its sections. This is a paradise for those who like to get barreled. This is the east coast version of the perfect wave.

Los Mangos beach break.
A surf break basically reserved for those who are staying at Los Mangos Hotel, undiscovered until we built the hotel, fun beach break that can get fun & hollow in medium tide, great for surfers of all levels and surf schools

La Ventana.
A nice beach break for smaller days and beginner surfers, pure fun in 2 to 5 feet swells range. At La Ventana beach the mountains meet the ocean in the shape if a window making this beach a nice spot to get away from the crowds.

 

La Vaca
A Fast and hollow wave, it offers a shorter ride than Las Flores. It Starts breaking next to the rocks over sand bottom, breaking into a small rocky bay, especially good for 2 to 5 feet swell.

El Toro
Fast hollow point break with sand bottom, it has 2 main sections, the outside section breaking next to a huge volcanic rock and in front of an impressive volcanic cliff. The inside section breaks towards a nice sandy beach for about 100 yards, it’s hard to connect both sections. It needs at least 3 to 4 feet swell to start breaking. This break is for experienced surfers only.

El Bongo
This is another right-hand point break breaking over the sand, breaking with 6ft + south west swell, it’s a bit mushier and slower than the surrounding waves at the east coast but it’s fun and less crowded than the rest of the point breaks.

El Cuco and Miraflores beach breaks
Slow and mushy beach breaks, going left and right, great for beginners, good for surfing in a fish, fun board or long board. It gets especially good on high tide with 2 to 4ft swell.
