context_page_description: El Salvador first competed in the Olympic Games at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City, Mexico. No athletes were sent to the 1976 Summer Olympics, and the nation took part in the boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics. Excluding these two Games, El Salvador has participated in every Summer Olympic Games since 1968. It has never competed in the Olympic Winter Games. As of the completion of the 2012 Summer Olympics, 118 Salvadorans have represented their nation at the Olympics. No Salvadoran has ever won an Olympic medal.
  Both the all-time youngest and oldest Olympic participants from El Salvador competed at the 1968 Games. Swimmer Rubén Guerrero swam in five events: the Men's 400 meters freestyle, 1,500 meters freestyle, 4 × 100 meters freestyle relay, 100 meters butterfly, and 200 meters individual medley. Roberto Soundy finished 54th in the trap shooting event.
  Fourteen athletes have competed in multiple Olympics. Eva Dimas, Evelyn García, and Juan Vargas, are the only Salvadorans to have competed in three Olympic Games.
