Montanita, Ecuador
This year while we were on our New Year's break my husband and I decided to visit the town of Montanita, it is a small beach village an hour and thirty minutes away from the popular beach of Salinas, this little village is very colorful and filled with people of all nationalities! We absolutely fell in love with the laizes faire atmosphere that wraps the village! The streets are filled with crafts and handmade goods from jewelry to kids toys and clothes...
You can get all sorts of fresh seafood and other local snacks like arepas con queso (maize tortillas filled with cheese) and prensados (shaved ice with flavored syrup and condensed milk) ceviches are made in every corner and the little drink kiosks that use fresh fruit to make all sorts of margaritas, mojitos or smoothies!
This town is a charming as they come! With many hostels for backpackers to nicer hotels it is a marvelous beach town to explore! At nights the environment is very festive, lots of street artists and street bars where to have an amazing evening!
