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 />
