Features
After surfing at home for decades, I can assure you that El Salvador is a consistent, top quality, and world class surfing destination.
Our Southern Hemi swell window is between march and october, 8 months. They are composed of 2 months of dry season and 6 months of rainy season. This means that wind and storm variables play a fundamental role in the surfing conditions, so local knowledge is a big asset in El Salvador.
Eco Surf Trips are owned, designed and operated by local surfers. We have decades of surfing experience in El Salvador, in both La Libertad and the Wild East.
The house recommends our signature surf trip: Eco La Libertad and Wild East Premium Package. No surf trip to El Salvador is complete if you don’t experience the power of La Libertad and the natural beauty of the Wild East.
Nowadays, we have more spots to surf in but we also have more visitors. Take your surf trip to the next level, take advantage of our local knowledge and surf till you drop.

The dry season starts on November and lasts until April. Conditions are typically offshore winds, sunny skies and small surf. Wave sizes average chest to head high during the dry season, but ocassional big swells roll in with excellent conditions
El Salvador Surf Wet Season:
The rainy season starts on May and lasts until October. During the wet season, consistent storms in Antartica and off the coast of New Zealand provide large swells to El Salvador´s coastline. The weather is typically partially sunny in the morning and rains in the afternoons and during the night. Wave sizes average head high to overhead during the rwet season. Conditions are usually glassy mornings and onshore winds beginning in the late morning.
*Best season for all breaks is March to October

Characterization of surroundings/region
Our country is internationally remembered for it long lasting civil war and considered by many a “dangerous place to go”. El Salvador has been at peace and democracy since 1992 and has slowly become a great destination ever since.
Its main attractions are: surfing, cloud forests, volcanoes, eco-tourism and its people.
It is difficult to understand El Salvador before you go there. All you ever see on the international news is: a long war, gangs, violence, etc. But once your there, you get to see the real El Salvador, the broad green valleys, the black-sand beaches, the majestic volcanoes and its people.
