More on La Libertad

Sir Francis Drake landed on the shore on what is today La Libertad in the 16th century when he was on his way north towards California. La Libertad was just a nondescript coastal village that saw occasional activity, such as when the first steamboat arrived there in 1857. An iron pier was built here in 1869, but for the rest of the 19th century, the village had less than five hundred inhabitants.

La Libertad only began to boom in the 1970s, after it was discovered by surfers. After the Salvadoran civil war was over, the government put in put a number of tourist projects including the construction of a broadwalk and an amphitheater. Accommodation providers and restaurants soon mushroomed in La Libertad.
