If you’re looking for a relaxing day or night in a small agricultural community, with excellent food and markets, look no further than the small town of Cacaopera. You can get to Cacaopera on a bus from San Miguel or San Francisco Gotera and the people are extremely friendly and willing to dispense advice and directions for free or act as a guide for a price.

Sightseeing
You can take a guided hike to the ceremonial grounds and visit the cultural museum for a look at indigenous life. The market, hotels and restaurants are simple but open to tourists.
