Great videos, just FYI there are some sand beaches a few minute drive from el tunco. I think it was called el majahual, definitely less touristy. Also there's a beach called el cuco on the east side that's supposed to be beautiful. Edit: If you haven't yet, highly recommend Mopelia for dinner, the owner is super awesome and I've always had a great time there!
Hey thanks so much for the recommendations! Actually I had dinner and listened to some live music there a few days ago! Definitely a great spot! Appreciate the support to
Haven't been to El Salvador since '09. It was such a good experience because whatever preconceptions and fears I had , disappeared the two weeks I spent there. It's a beautiful small little country. I can only imagine how much better it has become since.
Hey Chris, your video is awesome. If I can I’ll book a flight to that beach too. May I ask you what you mean “under the weather?” What made you sick…something you ate? You have a new follower on your channel and Instagram because you are a down to earth person. Keep having fun friend!
Thanks a lot for the support bro! I'm actually having a group trip here in November, it would be awesome if you joined in! The full details will be released in a few days, but we will visit so many amazing places! No, not any food. Just woke up with a sore throat and a runny nose! It went away three days later, just a cold! Thanks so much! I'm so glad to have you here! 💪🏻
Those rocky beaches in El Salvador are the minority, a very small part of the coast, they just happen to be popular. 90% of the beaches in El Salvador are beautiful black sand beaches.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Very detailed! I love it ❤️. All this info helps me to plan my trip ahead of time. I'm so glad you mentioned security because you hear all the lies in the news that they are arresting anyone with tattoos. As I thought it was a BIG LIE. (LOVE IT 😍) Thank you again.
Thanks a lot for the support! You're going to love El Salvador so much! I have a complete video coming soon, where I go over everything safety in the country! That one should help you a lot!
I am Salvadorean and pisses me off how people can sell a coconut for $2 ! In Santa Ana, at the mercado central I buy 2 yellow coconuts for $1.25 and because I am not getting ripped off I tell the man selling coconuts to keep the change.
Hey Chris. Good to hear you're doing great! With the estado de excepción going on is the army and police everywhere? Have they stopped you for the tattoos you have?. I heard anyone with tattoos might be searched. Or is just gang related? It looks a lot safer than Google says
I been dying to go to El Salvador for many years now but haven't do to having tattoos but I see you have some it makes me feel I would be just fine if I visit, all my tattoos have color and not gang related, Great video I'm gonna start planning a trip.
@@Travelwithchris Thank you for your reply! if its not a problem,im 16 years old,but i know every street of novi sad! Cant wait to show you everything :)
I realized it's really expensive. Magnets are way expensive in any country but some regions of Italy like in Rome where you could buy 1 magnet for 1 euro. Make the math he was selling you 3 for 10 bucks.
My friend we have so many beach in another deparment,very pretty en beatufull, da is not pretty,I tellyou, go in sonsonate,san miguel, san Luis Tampa is the most popular end nace
@@Travelwithchris San Luis Talpa, La Paz El Salvador, El Salvador - we got an Airbnb there on the beach and it was a nice sandy beach not far from El Tunco! You’ll like it. We loved El Tunco, the nightlife there is awesome but to enjoy the beach - the place I just mentioned would do.
Thank you man you’re getting rid of the stigma that there is about going down there. It’s funny that I was talking to my mother about going to El Salvador today and she was like no you can’t even go you’ll get arrested as soon as you get down there or the gangsters will kidnap you she was surprised to see this video and see Americanized individuals like yourself walking around their motherland, which I am speaking of salvadorian descendants like myself. Thank you for getting rid of that. She was really impressed with how you’re walking around like nothing
The waves of the beach is very aggressive suitable for surfing the souvenirs really unique and alots of nice cafes, musicians are nice also amazing place!🏄♀️⛱🍍🍇🍉🍭🌵🆒👍🌀❇🌻✳🔆🌼🔅
La verdad mi gringo no tan gringo que los precios en esos lugares son de locura, muy caro nos cobran a los locales y a los extranjeros, los vendedores no discriminan a la hora de hacer que saques tu dinero del bolsillo...saludos...
I think you have not been to some of our beaches.. your right in the sense when we might not have the bluest beaches but we do have alot of beaches with no rocks alottttt and some were you can walk forever and ever and the water still hits knee level like playas las tunas if you go that way or if you go to the other end we have barra De santiago in ahuachapan and el tunco is not cheap for locals but for tourists I guess u can say it .. paying 2dl for a coco is def something locals do not do and can't do because they can't afford it..its really good we get tourism but it's just getting out of hand with locals not even wanting to visit anymore because it's so expensive now
I completely understand that! But that is what happens everywhere in the world. Its sad but tourism has its perks and its downsides. Thanks so much for sharing and I'll definitely be visiting some of those sandy beaches before leaving
Thanks for your el tunco videos I watched this video a couple years ago I went ahead and visited and had a. great time in all aspects. This will be my 3rd time visiting here now thanks!
On the right side of the main streets of el tunco is actually swimmable. Btw, all those things you’ve mentioned on here are very cheap considering it’s the most tourist beach in all of El Salvador.
Not gonna lie man since Bukele cracked down on gangs there how it's pretty crazy visiting with your tattoos out. I heard anyone who even looks like a gang member gets arrested.
I feel it is pretty safe, I traveled all around the country and loved it. Yeah I'm sure if you have a big 13 or 18 on your body you'll definitely be locked up, but otherwise you're fine
There's nothing to worry about bro! ☺️🤣 I've been talking to so many police officers throughout my trip as well. They can literally tell who is a gang member from a mile away :)
If that’s true that’s awesome to hear ! I have family in Salvador they have always told me if they see people all tatted up especially travelers you have a higher chance in running danger but I’m super glad it’s changing Salvador was horrible at some point
Soy de Argentina, no conozco El Salvador, pero si vi información de como Bukele acabó con las pandillas. No hay punto de comparación la fisonomía del youtuber, ni el estilo de tatuajes, de lejos se nota que no tiene nada que ver con los pandilleros delincuentes, que parecen todos iguales. Dejen de asustar a los tatuados. Yo no tengo ningún tatuaje, pero hay mucha gente tatuada por moda
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 it just bothers me when all I hear about is Bitcoin when it comes to El Salvador! When in fact there is so much more that makes El Salvador amazing besides bitcoin
Man, people with tattoos should stay away from El Salvador, haven't you heard what the government is doing, having tattoos can be a ticket to jail. Be careful.
It's not like that, plus he's foreign. They're taking people to jail if he's a ganster, they are very unique to make tattoos so you can easily make a difference between them and "normal people". Just clarifying what is about this matter.
There is no problem with tattoos at all, now having gang tattoos that's a difference. Stop watching the news and stop leaving uneducated comments when you don't knw
Yes super, but honestly if you're traveling with a lot of valuables I would just play it safe and book a private transfer! It costs literally $5 more thn uber but 100% safe. I booked mine with @TuncoLife
Ja ja ja. Minuto 11:40 “ porque el es un buen vendedor te voy a comprar una para apoyarte 😢 pobrecito muchacho creyo que le ivas a comprar más de uno :( s

Thank you so much!
Surprise they didn’t confuse you with a salvatrucha 😂

Thanks for your el tunco videos I watched this video a couple years ago I went ahead and visited and had a. great time in all aspects. This will be my 3rd time visiting here now thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! I’m hoping to get back soon to make a lot more videos!

Beautiful picture 😍

You not worried about showing your tattoos rn?
Not at all
Finally, someone telling the truth about Bitcoin in El Salvador.....!
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 it just bothers me when all I hear about is Bitcoin when it comes to El Salvador!
When in fact there is so much more that makes El Salvador amazing besides bitcoin
Bro Latin Americans are expensive compare to South east asian countries 😊
Oh yeah!! Big time
Creí que le iba a regalar el vuelto a la señora de las minutas pero no 😔
How far is El Zonte from El Tunco , I think El Zonte is where they use Bitcoin?
Its only 15 minutes away, but even there it isn't used that much! Video from there coming soon!
I danced colegiala with those guys!!!! I miss el Tunco sooooo much and the tienda Juanita the lady there was super nice
El Tunco is such a vibe!
Man, people with tattoos should stay away from El Salvador, haven't you heard what the government is doing, having tattoos can be a ticket to jail. Be careful.
It's not like that, plus he's foreign. They're taking people to jail if he's a ganster, they are very unique to make tattoos so you can easily make a difference between them and "normal people".
Just clarifying what is about this matter.
There is no problem with tattoos at all, now having gang tattoos that's a difference.
Stop watching the news and stop leaving uneducated comments when you don't knw
Oh god another one 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Thanks for coming.... very nice video.... and you are a very nice people.... very interesting......
I appreciate you so much!
Is it easy to take an uber down from San salvador? And how about going back to the city at night?
Yes super, but honestly if you're traveling with a lot of valuables I would just play it safe and book a private transfer! It costs literally $5 more thn uber but 100% safe. I booked mine with @TuncoLife
Another great video Chris
Saludos cordiales desde Silicon Valley Crist me encanto el video la playa y todo el panorama 😊🙏
Saludos!!!
I've watch all ur Salvador videos and I loved them..thank you..🙏👍
