Paddling from the The Surf and Adventure Club along the jagged cliffs offers great views. It is the perfect way to see the impressive Salvadorean pacific coast dotted with astonishing beach villas that sit on the tall cliffs. Perhaps checking out the surfers up close, snorkeling, or fishing off the kayaks is more your style. The experience lasts anywhere between 2 and 4 hours. The perfect season for kayaking is in the from November through March, when the southwest swells are soft and the tide level is extremely low. Kayaking in any other month has to be done with caution and we strongly recommend a local guide.
