Mancora - becareful you might not leave.

Mancora has an awesome viby beach, a pretty tourist main street and backed by the 3rd world Peru we are getting to know so well. The tourist bit is not like the norm though. Its full of very unique restaurants, street stores and fruit markets. All manned by a very friendly bunch, but learn Spanish before you go. We stayed at Luguna camp owned by a surfer Migueal. Very chilled atmosphere with hammocks, the beach and nothing but the sound of the ocean to disturb your sleep.Its a place where you go and may never leave. The wave is cool but its pretty packed. We were in the water at 8pm with the full moon, as apparently no-one here believes in sharks. Stick with the local knowledge I say, or just make sure you can paddle faster than the guy next to you.
