There are some great restaurants and local general stores within walking distance. This is a great area to build a home or business with the convenience of having many of the areas offerings so close by.

Neighborhood

People used to go to Popoyo just for surf, lounge in a hammock, eat, surf and repeat (with a few beers in between!) The sole focus for those visiting the area is the waves. Now there is much more to do with restaurants and bars opening monthly with a very communal surf vibe and increased entertainment value.  But with over 300 days of offshore winds it’s hard to find a day here you can’t surf and often too tired to do anything else.

Tidal Pools, Guasacate Beach

Surfing Boat Trips
One of the best ways to surf around the Popoyo area is by spending a 1/2 or full day on a boat and surf multiple breaks in a day.  Boats can take you to the popular breaks like Playgrounds, Chacocente, Laces Left, Popoyo Reef, Santanas, Panga Drops, Colorados, Manzanillo and maybe some secrete spots.  There are several companies that run surf charters, ask the owner of the place your staying about rates and booking a trip.  Remember it is very sunny and hot out on the water, so be sure to take bottled water, sunblock, wax, towel, hat, long sleeve, camera and surf etiquette!  

Learn to Surf 
If you have always wanted to surf… your in the right place!  Renting a board and just going for it is not recommended as the ocean can be a dangerous place for the inexperienced.   There are several surf schools in the area to take a class with and you’ll be stoked you did.

The other 2 pools are designed like swimming pools and perfect temperature to relax in.   While you’re relaxing don’t be surprised if you see the locals doing their laundry and the wash stations. They don’t have washing machines or hot water at their house like most people.
To get there you take the turn at the police station in Las Salinas and drive about 5 mins slowly up the road through the neighborhood until you arrive at the hot springs on your right hand side. Don’t forget to bring your water and Tona.
