- Ayampe Ecuador surf town is up the coast in the Manabi province , past Montanita on the way to Canoa. And there’s so much more to it than just surfing!
It’s so small, maybe better called a pueblo. But it was once a place where a lot of people from Cuenca came, had timeshares and weekend villas.
But in the last 10 years Ayampe Ecuador has quickly turned into a very well-known, Ecuadorian surf town. It is very chill. There are no clubs here.
Restaurants in Ayampe
El Paso 2: bolon, fried egg, coffee for $4. They also have vegan and vegetarian options.
Las Cabañas del Corviche: for fish corviche made from plantain, peanut and albacore tuna
La Esquina del Cafe: beef empanada de verde, gluten-free
Los Orishas: margherita pizza and Pilsner beer

Hi I'm Ayngelina and my full time job is my site BaconisMagic.ca it's all about the best food around the world and how to make it at home.
In 2010 I left a job in advertising, 5 year relationship and sold all my possessions to travel the world. In the last ten years I've had some crazy experiences and even owned a restaurant in Toronto at one time. And prior to 2020 I had been based in Cuba.
When the world shut down I returned to Canada and decided to teach myself video. I wanted to share more than just words and photos but to show people the adventures I have learning about food around the world.
I'm not married. I have no kids. But I do have a lot of local friends who help me discover the best local tips.

Another great video, I never heard Ayampe,I was in Ayange!. I will put in my list for my next trip. Thank you for sharing.👌
I think it's an up and coming surf town. I had planned to go to Ayangue but Ecuadorians have told me the food isn't good so I think I'm going to skip it on my next trip. What do you think?
@@ayngelina I agree with you, this place looks better.👍
@@williamsjara1 I'll be checking out the beaches in Esmeraldas this January.
That drink looks soooo refreshing! I've never seen an orange that looks like a kiwi inside. 😲
Naranjilla is a weird but delicious fruit. But we should chat about 2022, maybe we can coordinate travel in the same place.
@@ayngelina yes!! I have some questions for you regarding being a travel vlogger.
Yum yum yum, I want to shred some of those waves and empanadas!
So good!
The beaches down there are spectacular. I've read about them in books and you're actually there.
Which one do you want to know the most about?
Food looks great! I don't know how you stay so fit eating all that rich delicious food.
I share all my food, but even still it's a constant balance.
GREAT THANKS for sharing..
So good to hear from you Estela!
The only way to establish the type of town the residents want is to establish ordiances to prevent the coming Montanita. I am surprised is was cooler there. There is one two in the very north of Ecuador, close to Panama, whose name escapes me--anyway, there, it is as humid as Olon. Thanks for the video.
That's a good point, I don't know about the geography. But a lot of Ecuador is warm during the day and cool at night. It was also quite windy, which you could see from the waves. Sadly the first sunny day was the morning we were leaving so I'm not sure I had a true experience of the weather.
Had made me hungry this pizza .mmmm
Beautiful place !
It's absolutely gorgeous here
Wow,I've never tried Corviche.....this looks appetizing... you amaze me
If you like bolon and you like seafood then you'll love corviche.
Love corviche mixto is goooooddddf
So good! I can’t wait to visit. Only thing-the empanadas de verde I have had actually have added a bit of flour to help with the dough consistency.
Interesting, these ones don't. The secret is to use boiled plantain and grated/shredded raw plantain. It has also has egg. but I'd be interesting to see how flour changes the consistency.
@@ayngelina yeah It didn’t look like it…and I love that option!
Vivir simple sin discusiones por pequeñeses y reir mas que llorar. Conocer gente no tan complicada. Estar en la misma sintonia. No joder tanto porque la rudeza cansa las lecciones cansan y la mala educacion no atrae. Estar en paises (educados) que actuan como si no tuvieran educacion. Harta. Y estos paises enseñan tanto de como respetar y contestarle a los demas que es increible la diferencia.
I thought you were in Canada my dear...I guess this was before you left ....I see your videos when they pop up.....is that a deal...
Yes I shot extra videos so I could continue to post through December even though I'm in Canada for the holidays. You can expect more videos from the coast until I return/
Hola! En la próxima anda a la provincia de esmeraldas allá por lo general su comida es a base de coco y puros mariscos! Saludos!
En este viaje no tuve tiempo para Esmeraldas así que en enero estoy comenzando otro viaje costero comenzando en Esmeraldas. Si tiene alguna sugerencia, hágamelo saber, ya que se supone que Esmeraldas es una de las mejores.
@@ayngelina de lugares turísticos te recomiendo a que vayas a los manglares son super bonitos, hay uno que queda entre manabi y esmeraldas por ese hotel decameron en mompiche ahí se va en lancha y se recorre todo eso y como se conecta al mar creo que eso se llama estuarios, super recomendado, está también esmeraldas, playa same, playa sua, la laguna de cube, playa tonsupa, playa Atacames, refugio de vida silvestre manglares estuario del río muisnes, playa san Francisco del cabo, bosque del chocó, de comidas están cevicangre, tapao arrecho, sopa marinera, caldo de bagre, arroz con camarón, arroz con concha, cangrejos encocaos, arroz marinero, ensumacao, pesundao, dulces de cocadas, rompemuelas, bebida como el champú y la mazamorra, 7 sabores de mar, 3 sin sacar, encocado de aserrín de toyo o raya, encocado de Guanta, muchines de yuca, etc
The bolon de Verde is my favorite....con chicharron....the best...
So tasty but if you get a big one you won't eat anything else all day!
Regardless,I think its a goood concoction..
Sweet
Hope u made it home safe..
Yes safe at home in Nova Scotia, but I have extra videos from the coast to share all through December 💜
@@ayngelina awesome
Happy holidays🎶🎶
Love Mantanita piggy just keep eating!!
I have a video coming up from Montañita

Hola gorgeous cuando vengas a Ecuador, yo siempre voy a playa paraíso o playa rosada, son playas menos concurridas y la verdad que uno se relaja más que cuándo vas a las playas mas concurridas. Yo voy siempre en fechas que no sean feriados y disfruto mucho con mi familia. Cuando aterrices en guayaquil avisa y tienes aventón gratis por la ciudad
Muy gentil, que puedes recommendar para comer mi promixa vez alla?
@@ayngelina ceviche de concha, camarones apanados, etc
Aunque hay un lugar antes de ir a la playa llamado chicharron dónde venden comida de todo tipo
@@alexcamacho5230 el chicharrón es lo máximo tienes razón
I think it's too late. Already happened. Still a very charming little Pueblo... Exaggerated prices for sure. You just have to resign yourself to it for a few daze... It's the Gringo effect....
Agree 100%
Lo bueno de este pais es que no te discriminan por no hablar en español
Claro que si
@@ayngelina disculpa de donde eres???
Soy Canadiense
This town is already more crowded than it should be. Thanks to this kind of exposure and marketing the cost of living here has gone up dramatically. I've been coming here for 11 years now and don't really like seeing it turn into the mess that is costa rica these days. The surf is getting really crowded and now it is the most expensive place in Ecuador now. We don't need any more exposure like this.
Jared I can completely understand your frustration. For the record I loathe Costa Rica because everything is foreign owned and while I appreciate their dedication to the environment, the local culture is gone.
But price increases aren't because of TH-cam videos. For the first time in 10 years when Lasso increased the price of gasoline and taxes, minimum wage (for a good reason) it meant prices increased everywhere in Ecuador...as it did everywhere in the world.
I've been visiting Ecuador since 2010 and I think the increase in price along the coast is inevitable, especially for surf spots. The change in Canoa shocked me since I last visited in 2013 when it was a tiny village. And Ayampe is certainly not a hidden secret. It's part of the coastal trail most people visit. My only hope is that it is Ecuadorian businesses that benefit from this.
@@ayngelina fair enough. Travel writing is probably fun and I've considered it myself, so I get what you're doing it's just that this place has exploded over the last five years and it breaks my heart to see how fast it's being developed. It is a great place but it's having some serious growing pains the last few years. Safe travels 😉
@@jaredwinter5125 I totally get it. I've actually run my site since 2010 (it's my job, TH-cam is just a hobby) and have traveled non-stop so I see what happens.
For me it's about does the growth help locals?
And so I returned in 2021 because I wanted people to consider Ecuador when they started traveling again because small business and tourism was devastated.
You should probably go back to Ayampe now because when I was there I think maybe 25% of businesses were open and I'm not sure what happened to the rest. That said, I really do hope it can avoid what happened to Montanita, I think because the beach isn't really for swimming it could remain that way.
More touring and less eating would make your channel more attractive.
Hahaha this made me laugh out loud. If you don't want to see someone eat, you definitely shouldn't watch my videos 😋
