Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly
El Tunco is El Salvador's most social surf beach — the black sand beach, consistent waves, and backpacker community make it extremely easy to meet people. Surf lessons group everyone together. The nightlife is more contained and safe than you might expect. The sunset from the rocks above town is one of Central America's most dramatic. Very budget-friendly for Central America.
