logoeco130pxThe Jiquilisco Biosphere Reserve is one of the most beautiful places in all of El Salvador, and it is also a great site for a day of fishing.  Hit the waters with a local fishing guide and with a bit of luck, you’ll be reeling up snook (robalo), red snapper,  and corvina in no time.  During your fishing trip, keep your eyes peeled as you approach the bird sanctuary among the mangrove forests; get ready for some intense relaxation as you visit small, pristine, beaches where you’ll be able to swim in the warm waters of this coastal paradise.
