Rick, the wind comes from the humboldt current, which makes wind everyday [just about from june-november. The nice thing is that in Ecuador its warm, as it is colder down south that time of year. Waves are 2 meter to 4 meter, lots of long lefts and fun rights, with some real big suprises we dicovered at the end of the season last year.
People are so friendly and its a fun place, mainly Ecuadorian toursits, so they like to see us gringos kiting. The fisherman you see is where we get the weather reports from.....why? That guy goes out like 20 miles with the early offshore winds into the current, loads up on fish and waits for the switch and heads back in, no motor....so its safe to safe they are dialed in.
The cool thing about ecuador is that you can travel about after kiting and see really unique stuff and not miss any water time.....oh yeah and its cheap...no visa...ect
Anyway, fun to be had, a new place for us light winders looking for a fix june- october
