A Brief History

Traditionally a fishing village, El Cuco has maintained its authentic Salvadoran vibe while slowly becoming a favorite destination for both locals and international visitors. Over the years, its pristine beaches have attracted surfers and eco-tourism, while small businesses have flourished along the shoreline.
