Atmosphere |
There’s a good atmosphere in Manta because there are lots of clubs, bars, parties, etc… People are very friendly. |

General |
The best bodyboarding wave in Ecuador. You can really fly on this spot and get some good tubes. The only problem is that it can get really crowded and you have to respect locals, but if you are friendly they will let you get some waves. |
