Acajutla, El Salvador

Acajutla is El Salvador’s principal seaport on the Pacific coast. Visitors to this charming seaside resort are welcomed by friendly people enjoying marvelous beaches. At Los Cabanos Beach, divers can take an extended diving tour to see reefs and other marine life. Deep-sea and reef fishers can hop on a chartered boat and hit the water for an afternoon of fishing. For the more adventurous, just inland from the port, the forests of Apaneca are a prime spot for a zip-line tour with spectacular views. The now dormant Izalco Volcano offers hikers an incredible experience and a chance to peer into the crater of this once active volcano.
