Brief History
Las Flores has established itself as one of the most recognized surf destinations in El Salvador due to the consistency of its right-hand waves. Unlike the spots on the western coast, which receive much more traffic, the east has maintained a low profile for years, allowing these waves to be preserved with fewer people in the water. Around the beach, a small selection of hotels and surf camps has grown, which today supports the local economy.
