Information about Montanita, Ecuador (Click to view)
Over the last few years Montanita has been discovered and is now THE place to hang out on the coast. With many dive sites and the famous Isla Del Plata not far away, the diving is also world class. Although it's small, it is a booming beachside retreat attracting international travelers as well as an alternative Ecuadorian crowd. It is therefore a great place to learn Spanish, meet other travelers and also practice your Spanish with local Ecuadorians.
Ecuador was named for its position on the Equator and is bordered by Colombia, Peru and the Pacific Ocean. Not many countries as small as Ecuador have such diverse climate regions. This country has the tallest active volcano in the world, great white sand beaches, tropical rain forests, deep crevasses, colorful Indian markets and is well known for its social and political stability.
