El Salvador is a beautiful country in Central America to visit. If
you're looking for gambling options in El Salvador, including El
Salvador casinos, consider what this country has to offer.
First of all, while El Salvador is not particularly noted for its large
number of casinos, at least compared to other parts of Central America,
there are nonetheless a few quality and popular casinos to be found.
Although using El Salvador casinos is considered the only legal form of
gambling in the country, other forms of gambling are available, as well,
particularly betting at horse racing and dog racing sports events.
Further, El Salvador gambling is available on many cruise ships and
riverboat casinos in El Salvador. Many locals and tourists frequently
choose to place bets at these types of events
As mentioned above, the only form of legal gambling in this country is
through the licensed El Salvador casinos. There are two main El
Salvador casinos. The biggest casino in the country, complete with
legal gambling facilities, is found in the city of Guadalupe, the Siesta
Hotel & Casino. This particular casino consists of four different
table games and a total of 200 casino slot machines or other video
terminal gaming machines. Besides the Siesta Hotel & Casino, the
city of Guadalupe offers two other facilities containing slot machines
only, and there are five other locations in the city for table games.
In the city of Santa Ana, you can find the Monte Carlo Casino, which is
still somewhat popular among tourists, although it is not as large as
the Siesta Hotel & Casino and has no gaming machines. You can also
find smaller, lesser quality and sketchier El Salvador casinos and
gambling joints scattered throughout the country, but these are
generally considered to be for locals only and are not recommended for
tourists.
Poker games are prevalent throughout the country, both in and outside
the El Salvador casinos. Many locals participate regularly in
large-scale tournaments, independent of the El Salvador casinos. In
addition, lotteries are held regularly in El Salvador.
Gambling is slowly becoming more recognized throughout El Salvador as
local entertainment for the residents, as an attraction for tourists,
and as a revenue generator for businesses and the government. Whether
you're looking for El Salvador casinos or other forms of gambling, you
are sure to find what you're looking for while visiting this fascinating
country.
