The Espino beach is a beautiful place. Now days, the road to El Espino is<br />

paved, just it takes 40 minutes from the city of Usulután and 2 hours and 15<br />

minutes from the capital, San Salvador. That is one of the most visited beaches in El<br />

Salvador<br />

It comes from the highway El Litoral where you can find the side road. There won´t find<br />

big five-star hotels and infrastructure, but there are small hotels and places where you can<br />

rest, and also, the people and the beach is very comfortable.<br />

This beach is part of Jiquilisco bay; it has a lot of estuaries, beaches and two ports (Puerto<br />

Parada and Puerto El Triunfo).<br />

In other way, you could be 10 meters into the beach from the shore of it and the water just<br />

will come up to the knees.<br />

Moreover, the beach is wrapped around by two river mouths (the Bocanita and Chepona at<br />

east and west).<br />

Also you can practice some sports, for example surf, volleyball, etc.<br />

In this beach there are a lot of restaurants where you have to taste so many delicious<br />

saucers, from our country and other countries, too.<br />

Presently the beach still has a threat of wind erosion (it means, the sand is swept by the<br />

wind), the waves have been dredging pieces of the lad and also have demolished down<br />

buildings and trees.<br />

If you want to come to Espino´s beach is an excellent place for relaxing and enjoying with<br />

your family or friends and is very accessible, too. El Espino is a <strong>natural</strong> treasure of the<br />

Country.<br />

It has a little “estero” you can see it if you walk some<br />

meters to the south of the beach, moreover, the different<br />

species of birds that surround the fishing boats when<br />

arrive with fresh fish at the shore of the beach and of<br />

course you can buy the fish at the fishers if you want.<br />

You can rest in the little huts that all the time have<br />

hammocks at your disposition, but not only that, you can<br />

take sun or enjoy of the delicious drinks that the<br />

Miguel and the bus takes 55 minutes to arrive to El Cuco.<br />

The Cuco offers the better hotels at the cheaper prices, if you want to stay there for<br />
