Sunzal

Mellow rolling right hand point break suitable for all levels.

Sunzal is a world-class right-hand cobblestone point break on El Salvador's La Libertad coast, offering rides up to 200 meters long that work from 2 feet to well overhead — a versatile wave that suits beginners through advanced surfers depending on the swell. The wave starts hollow and tubey on the inside before mellowing into a smooth, workable shoulder, and it functions at all tides with mid-dropping producing the best shape. The prime swell season runs March through October when South Pacific swells light up consistently, though even the dry months can produce quality surf. A 15-20 minute beach walk from the lively surf town of El Tunco, Sunzal sits alongside La Bocana, one of the country's few quality lefts, giving you options on both sides of the point. The area has excellent infrastructure with restaurants, bars, and accommodation in El Tunco.
