Audio Guide of Yoga on the Beach

Yoga on the Beach operates daily from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., with yoga classes scheduled at sunrise and sunset. To get there, take the CA-2 highway west toward El Tunco, about 45 minutes by car; consider renting a car or using taxi services such as Uber. More details are available on the official website.

Access to the beach is free, but yoga classes cost between $10 and $15 per session, depending on the instructor. Monthly packages offer discounts for frequent visitors. Check updated prices on Visit El Salvador.

A typical visit lasts 1 to 2 hours if you only take a yoga class, but if you combine it with relaxing on the beach, allow about 3 hours. It is ideal for taking your time and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Yoga on the Beach began in 2010 as a local initiative to promote well-being on the Salvadoran coast, blending ancient Mayan practices with modern yoga. It has gained cultural importance by attracting tourists and locals, encouraging connection with nature and reducing stress in an area known for surfing.

Sunrise or sunset are ideal for classes, with cool breezes and stunning views; avoid midday because of the heat. The dry season from November to April is perfect, with less rain and more sunshine.

The beach area has loose sandy paths that can be challenging, but there are ramps in the main class area. We recommend contacting the center at +503 7777-1234 for special arrangements such as adapted chairs.

Nearby you will find El Tunco Beach, famous for surfing, just 5 minutes away, and El Imposible National Park, an hour away by car for hiking. You can also try local pupusas at nearby restaurants for an authentic Salvadoran experience.

Bring comfortable clothing, sunscreen, and a yoga mat; book classes in advance through the app. Drink plenty of water because of the tropical climate and pair your class with a post-session massage to fully relax your muscles.
