Just over an hour away from the muggy mall laden metropolis of San Salvador is Playa El Tunco, a beach town popular with city folk on the weekends and surfers all day, everyday. The waves are the draw for most and water is a balmy 86 degrees Fahrenheit. The ocean here is the warmest I've ever experienced, stepping into the water feels like taking a bath, its remarkable.

Just south of El Tunco is a port town of La Libertad. La Libertad has a pier and an active fish market on the pier, it was a very interesting place to walk around and a fantastic place to buy seafood.
