Los Almendros Beach

Looks nice

Royal Decameron beach
2 Sonia Delphine

The room has a moldy smell and the air conditioning was leaking. Despite being advertised as all-inclusive, they still charged for bottled water. The food is of poor quality and they require reservations for the restaurants, limiting guests to only two at a time. Additionally, our sheets had stains, including a particularly unpleasant blood stain.

Costa Azul beach
8 Huong Tran.

This serene beach is a hidden gem with minimal crowds and a tranquil atmosphere. However, the lack of infrastructure is noticeable, as only one café named Evelyn is available, while the rest are private ranchos. It's essential to exercise caution while swimming, especially if you're alone or not a strong swimmer, as the ocean can be treacherous. There are no lifeguards on the coast, so be mindful of the risks. I had a fantastic time spending the entire day here with my friends and would undoubtedly return for another visit.

Cobanos beach III
8 Samantha L.

This charming beach spot exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The pristine sand boasts a distinct shade of white, setting it apart from the typical black volcanic sand found in other El Salvadorian beaches. I highly recommend a visit to this delightful destination.

The shoreline boasts a unique feature of black sand, free from any pebbles. However, it is disheartening to see the amount of plastic waste and other debris left behind by visitors. It is imperative that the authorities take action and visitors take responsibility to keep this natural beauty pristine.
