Holidays in El Cuco

Been partying too much after work? Desperate for a break and a few early nights? El Cuco has your name all over it. It sits among the beaches of El Salvador — nice and off the well-worn tourist trail. (We reckon you'll feel so relaxed, you'll be under the blankets by sunset!)

You'll discover one of El Salvador's most significant cities just a couple of hours from El Cuco. Tegucigalpa is 140 kilometres to the northeast.

Perhaps you'll come across some seashells to add to your collection while strolling along the water's edge at Santa Maria Beach.

El Cuco is right near some popular natural sights. Conchagua Volcano is 30 kilometres away and is well worth the time spent in the car.

Take time to explore the picturesque surrounds of El Cuco Park. It's a terrific place to take full advantage of a pleasant day.

Seeking some additional nearby destinations? Punta Mango is only 10 kilometres to the west, so jump in the car and start exploring! Alternatively, Llano de Los Patos, 18 kilometres east of El Cuco, is also worthy of your time.

Looking for a little fun off terra firma? El Salvador is a fantastic area to go swimming and surfing. They're must-do activities, even for the biggest landlubber!

The region's history museums have something for everyone. Step inside and find out what's going on.

If you're looking to learn more about the region's past, plan an excursion to some ruins. Find a map, do some research and pick your favourite one.

Familiarise yourself with the area from a spiritual perspective by organising a visit to its churches. Take a bit of time for your own quiet reflection or simply observe the locals in prayer.

There's a world of surprising flavours waiting to tango across your taste buds in El Salvador. With plenty of scrumptious things to eat and drink, all you need to bring with you is a robust appetite — and perhaps a pair of stretchy trousers.

Want to try some of the local fare? We recommend trying chicken and beef, two common ingredients which make up many of the dishes here.

While in El Cuco, dine like a local. That means trying a plate of tipico salvadoreno (eggs, cheese, tortillas) or casamiento (rice and black beans), two of the region's specialty dishes.

It won't take much to persuade you to try pastelitos (small stuffed pastries), a sweet treat that'll make you want to pack your bags and start a new life here.

Vinagre de piña (fermented pineapples and water) is the number one spirit for many El Salvador locals. Order up a shot or two and get the party going!

Make use of your time in the air by memorising some expressions in the local tongue. Try to pronounce '¿Cómo estás?'. It translates to 'how are you?'. 'No comprendo' ('I don't understand') is one more you might need.

Delicious food, dancing and music — national celebrations show us the best of what a country has to offer. Be sure to join in on the festivities on Independence Day on the 15th of September.

Thankfully El Cuco will stay just where it is, so this "Adiós" needn't be your last!

The closest terminal is El Salvador International Airport (SAL). When the time comes to pack your suitcase and hit the skies, head 110 kilometres to the west.
