Casa Blanca

Edit Spot
About

You can find restaurants in Casa Blanca, just follow the road from the entrance and you'll see it.
Next to it, there is a minimarket where you can buy anything you need, you can also find an ATM machine to get money.
The place is crowded with tourist on the months of February, August and December since there are holidays or vacations on those months. Beach can be polluted.

Atmosphere:
With the right conditions, Casa Blanca can be fun for bodyboarding and sometimes even surfboards.
With a big swell and no wind, it can get fast, hollow and powerful, shallow as well. You just need to be very lucky and be at the right wave and time to have a decent barrel, mostly closeouts.

Additional Info:
There are better spots around Esmeraldas, but sometimes (rarely) Casa Blanca can be worthy. It starts breaking at 1m and can hold up till 2m, bigger than that will be messy and with rides less than a second.

There are many parking spots around Casa Blanca.
