Our Activities

Let us show you our home break. Sign up for a surf lesson, give wakeboarding a try, take an estuary stand-up paddle tour, or swing by the restaurant and bar for one of our themed nights. Read more about our activities here.

Surf Class

Foreign travelers first began coming to El Paredón for its consistent waves, so why not learn to surf at Guatemala’s best surf break. Learn to surf from our bilingual surf coaches on our beginner-friendly soft tops. Lessons will start in the white water, where you’ll master paddling and popping up. On small days, you’ll be able to go out to the lineup to catch your first open-face waves. If you’re an experienced surfer, choose a rental board that matches your skill level and paddle out!

Bar-restaurant

Our beachfront restaurant is one of El Paredón’s most popular eateries and hangouts. Choose from a wide selection of local dishes and international favorites made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients. We’re constantly reinventing our menu to create a unique dining experience for our guests and visitors. If you have any dietary restrictions or preferences, let reception know during your booking or upon check-in.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wow, what an amazing place to stay. It has a hostel atmosphere but feels more like a young adult resort. Huge pool at the perfect temperatura, easy access to the beach for surfing and a big restraunt for any type of meal. The owner is a really good guy and will try and help you feel as at home as you can. The private rooms are a bit pricier but definitely worth the quiet since people like to party here most nights. It might be the most comftorable place to stay in El Paredón for a backpacker.
