Carnival 2008 in Ecuador will be February 4th and 5th. Celebrations will take place during the entire long weekend with the most intense fiestas on Sunday and Monday.
While a majority of Ecuadorians will go to the beach, excellent celebrations can be found in the highlands. My choice would be Ambato for the Fiesta de las Flores y las Frutas (celebration of flowers and fruit). Each city in Ecuador has a yearly celebration (las fiestas) and Ambato’s celebration ends during Carnival. This double celebration can be very exciting!
Every beach in Ecuador will be alive with activity during Carnival. Families and friends will party day and night from Saturday to Tuesday.
Carnival beaches for northern Ecuador and Quito are Tonsupa, Atacames and Same. Beaches for southern Ecuador and Guayaquil are Playas, Salinas, Canoa, Manta, or Montanita.
Don’t forget to make reservations for your stay at the beach because hotels will be sold out well in advance.
