Southbounders Notes on El Salvador

Barillas Marina (Mooring)


Best place for long-term in the water storage is Barillas Marina Club. Totally secure.  
Charges in 2002 were $8 per day.
Free bus ride twice a week into Usulutan for provisioning.
Yellow ATM (Visa only) at the Super Selecto Store for US dollars. 


No on the hard storage.

Bahia Del Sol (Anchorage)


Quite a scary entrance between two shoals with breaking waves and only in favorable weather on a high tide. Recommended to call for a guide in a panga.

Anchor in about 17 feet in the lagoon in front of the hotel which is favorable to cruisers and offers substantial discounts on food and bar.

Navy and immigration will come out to your boat to check you in.

No port entry fees, just a $10 tourist visa.

Free anchorage. Moorings $5/day. Excellent restaurant, a bar, huge swimming pool, new showers, beautiful beach.

Good place to leave the boat.
