Among all the places in the region you must consider few things:
- distance from the airport
- if nice beach is close enough
- if it is town where is very loud

We are two friends and business partners from Krakow, Poland who run the travel office and we decided to build this beautiful and lush house in the heart of Pacific Ocean. Since our first visit we fell in love with Playa Mecana, so with our local fellows we are maintaining this property with private beach. As scuba divers and surfers, we would like to amaze you with all the possible activities which you can do in the region: whale watching, waterfalls, wreck diving, tyre-swim in the river, forest animal trail, surfing, swimming and kayaking - ask us for help and we are ready to organize you everything!
What's more, like us, you must consider where to stay during your trip to Choco... after many travels there we are convinced that Playa Mecana gives you tranquility (Huina is veeery loud), great beach (which El Almejal doesn't have) palm garden with sandy beach (El Valle and Bahia Solano are not what you're looking for).
Hope to see you very soon in from of the fire during the moonlight night!
You must know, that our region is divided generally into 2 parts:
1. Bahia Solano (pueblo with airport) / Playa Huina / Playa Mecana - this is the bay
2. El Valle / Playa El Almejal
Most of the foreign tourists go into trap which is second option, about 50min. tuctuc drive with very bad road. You waist a lot of time this way. The beach El Almejal is very wide and big, without trees and palms, with very big waves, so if you go there, you cannot swim, just in some parts of the day, you can do surfing. But for majority of people it is dirty with dangerous water.
So if you like to enjoy beach in the region, please choose Playa Mecana or those close to Huina.
Thankfully to our location, you can discover variety of different activities.
