When you get to a split section you get the left road and it leads you to the point. You will pass a new surf resort right on the point, Mizata Point Resort. It has all the amenities and the only rooms right on the water in all of El Salvador, with air, hot water, Sat Tv,private decks and views of the waves to die for.

Mizata Epic Spot - Classic wave. Need to be in a good shape. Hollow and powerful, barrel into a short left and the right gives good sections to cut back´s and tail slide´s.
Uncrowded. Take the road.

People are tripping! Mizata is the SHIT! - It's more like one wave at Mizata is worth 10 at SUNZAL! Unless of course you're fat and ride a longboard and love slow burgery waves and like to kick it with other longboarder barnies in the lineup then Sunzal is the shit! I can't say enough good about this place! Stayed a week at the Mizata Surf Lodge in early June and scored sick totally uncrowded waves everday of our trip! It blows me away that an area with this high of quality waves is completely uncrowded.
