Mompiche is located in Ecuador's coastal region, just 8km (5 miles) south of Muisne, at the Esmeraldas province. When you arrive to the place, it feels like if it was a remote island far away from the modern world, where the perfect waves, the lovely landscapes, the sound of the local music and the smell of exquisite seafood get together to make a perfect day on the beach. Mompiche is considered as one of the region's most beautiful beaches and it has certainly become the new vacation spot for national and international tourists.
Mompiche is a rustic village of around 150 wooden houses where horses trot around the streets next to the tourists. Half of its population does fishing, and the other half works in touristic services such as restaurants and hotels. Due to the village's relaxed and informal atmosphere, it is common to watch people walking on the streets in their bathing suits, with no shirt and no shoes on, always ready to enjoy the beach.
The beach's large expanse of nearly 7km (4 miles) and the sea's perfect waves, together with its wonderful landscapes and its charming village also makes this place a dream spot for surf lovers. Around 6:30 in the morning, surf-loving men, women and children walk to El Punto (The Spot): a rocky place where the continuous sound of the breaking waves on the shore seems to invite the surfer to enter the water.
The Mompiche coast has a lot to offer regarding surf, exploration, whale sighting and fishing. This isolated, rustic beach will overwhelm you with its beauty and genuine charm.
