Traveling to Ecuador in May

We are traveling to Ecuador in May and would like to explore the idea of moving to a coastal area. Any suggestions as to what areas we should check out? We would like to put together a plan as soon as possible so that we can book hotels and flights. Thank you!

Hi chech Esmeraldas area, when I visited there in 1999, it was a pristine beatiful area. It is however  very hot and humid.

Yes, you are right! there is a beautiful beaches over there, Esmeraldas is a PARADISE, definetely!

Try to visit Agua Blanca in Ruta del SOl this beaches are very nice and you will find a beautiful local communities and Isla de la Plata that it is a mini Galapagos. Good Luck!

If you are interested in the Northern Coast, here is my blog.  Gives you great information on the beaches in this area. http://www.atruetalltale.wordpress.com  If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Actually, Esmeraldas has the coldest and rainiest climate of any coastal city in Ecuador.
