 Mompiche
is the ideal place for the lovers of the surf. There is one of the
last humedales sailor - wood nearest to the bark of the Ecuador.
Mompiche has been kept enough good with species of
fauna and flora. It possesses one of the most extensive waves of the
Ecuador of almost a kilometre of length.
To come it is possible to do it from Muisne to only
8 kilometres of distance. Its 7 kilometres of beach allow to enjoy and
to relax in the shade of the palms. The water here is clear and warm
(77-81F).
Tourists contribute to its tropical beauty, its
vegetation and a tourist attraction basically for its extension of
beach and the hospitality of its people in which the afro-Ecuadorian
community finds itself, Legend tells that a ship full of slaves,
heading in the direction of Colombia was shipwrecked in the
Esmeraldas-Monpiche coast.
The people aboard the ship found their freedom and
began a new life there. The MARIMBA is the favorite music that they
 sing
and dance to. It features chonta, a musical instrument made of hard
bamboo
Mompiche ranks among the most idyllic, unspoiled
beaches on the coast, little more than a sprinkling of huts and
fishing boats.
Mompiche is an excellent shortboarding and
longboarding wave and has a playful inside section with a sand bottom
good for novices. Mompiche is Ecuador's most beautiful beach and this
can also be a very romantic getaway for surfing couples.
There are different places to stay its a realtively
new spot and just now its being surf by foreigner more than
ecuadorians themselves. continues... |
