Surf Viejamar

Viejamar - Ecuador Viejamar features a powerful beach break with both right and left waves, set on a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The wave can become hollow and is best enjoyed at all tides, with rising and falling tide movements. The undertow can be strong, but the expansive beach allows for easy recovery if you tire from paddling. Located along the Ruta del Sol, between Puerto Lopez and Montañita, Viejamar offers instant access to the surf, just a short walk from the nearby hostel. The atmosphere is enhanced by the stunning scenery, where surfers can occasionally spot whales during the season. The beach remains relatively uncrowded during the week, providing a tranquil surfing experience. The local hostel, owned by a Chilean ex-journalist longboarder, adds a unique charm to the spot, making it an inviting destination for surf enthusiasts looking for both adventure and relaxation.
