At the junction of San Julian, a short journey south from Sonsonate, the coastal road heads south to the lowlands city of Acajutla, El Salvador’s main port serving the western and central areas, 85 km from San Salvador (the port is 8 km south of the Coastal Highway). It is a popular seaside resort during the summer for Salvadorans, but lodging in the village is not considered safe for foreigners. There are some good seafood restaurants with panoramic views.
The newly paved coastal road heads west running along the coast for 43 km before reaching the Guatemalan frontier at La Hachadura.
