We spent a long weekend in a small resort town called Montanita, staying in a hostel one minute’s walk from the beach. The town is populated largely by Argentinians and expatriates from various Western countries, and caters to both vacationing Ecuadoreans and gringos from around the globe. It’s a world-class surfing location and has hosted some high-profile tournaments. Food, drinks and lodgings are cheap and good.
My Friday and Saturday both went something like this: eat breakfast at the hostel, put on a bathing suit and wander down to the beach, rent a board and surf until 2pm, eat lunch, go back to the beach, play volleyball in the sand, body surf, grab a delicious cocktail and lounge for an hour or two, eat dinner, have a few drinks and wander town. I think I’ll try to come back here someday.
