The best time to be given a "chapuzon" in the warm waters of the North Coast of the Ecuador, it is from August to October, when the rains are scarce and the quite pleasant climate. On the other hand, of December to June constant cloudbursts are presented and the level of humidity is almost unbearable.
Another reason that makes interesting the visit in August, is the celebration of the day of the Independence of Emeralds that is commemorated with handmade ferias, marimbas (music of African origin in which you/they vibrate the drums and congas) and prints of folclore Afro-American.
