Sunzal Surf Company's Day Trips

Tazumal

In the heart of Chalchuapa, Santa Ana you will find the ruins of Tazumal, evidence of Mayan civilization that existed here until about 100 A.D.
It was discovered in the middle of the jungle along with El Trapiche and The lagoon of Cuscachapa, forming a mystic zone that houses the trails of an ancient culture. In 1942, archaeologist Stanley Bogas stumbled on the site and began excavations, and later discovered evidence of the entire civilization.
Definitely worth the trip, and probably even worth skipping a surf session, not that we would expect you to do that!!!
