Activities
What to do in your free time
For sure surf is one of the most popular activities, but beach sports are a must. Join other beachgoers for a game of soccer or volleyball on the sand. Another popular pastime is yoga, and you’ll find plenty of people practicing their downward dog or mountain pose in the quieter areas of the beach.
Two hours from Montañita by boat you’ll find the Isla de la Plata. It is the home of hundreds of bird species like the blue-footed booby or the frigate bird. The tours often include snorkeling or diving in the zone. You can book a tour with a reliable agency in the town of Montañita itself. The island can also be toured on foot, but only in the company of qualified guides.
Diving and snorkeling are available, and the warm, equatorial waters of Montañita are the perfect place to spot exotic fish species and marine wildlife. Between July and November there are boat tours to see humpback whales, which make the journey all the way from Antarctica to mate and give birth in the warm waters off Ecuador’s coast.
