Thanks for sharing. The California coast is getting hammered as well now. Must be some strong storms out there. The beaches look like our Florida beaches after a hurricane. Mother Nature doesn’t mess around!
Don thats exactly where you should be, right smack in the middle of that salsa dance class ,,showing off your dance moves to the local senoritas🕺🕺,,those rogue waves that hit all the coast of Ecuador happens about every 10 years ,,last time it hit hard like that ,,the FOL was still present in Manta !!
Still nice to have the sound of waves so nearby. Looks like there were some earthquake action out west in the Pacific islands: Guam, Marianas and such. Not tsunami strength, but providing fun for some South American surfers, I'd bet.
Hola Don! The Panamá beaches facing the Pacific Ocean have had the same issues. (Coronado, Pedasi, etc.) - I guess the Pacific Ocean is not so 'pacífico'. Keep safe. Abrazos
Manta needs to built rompeolas, made out of big rocks. They need to study the movement and directions of waves as is done in peruvian beaches. That beach reminded me Playa Pimentel.
I'm surprised they have big streetlights right on the beach. We don't have any lights on the beaches where I live in South Carolina, USA because they interfere with sea turtles.
A pier collapsed in Santa Cruz, California four days ago, so huge waves have been in the Pacific that may now be affecting Manta. ruclips.net/video/xijqQldEAeY/видео.html

According to El Instituto Oceanográfico de la Armada (Inocar): 3 more days of mad Pacifico. Not only the beach is destroyed. Houses, negocios and infrastructures tambien along the Manabi coast. Lucky you, you are not on the beach front, yet.
Sea levels are rising. I first saw this in Hammamet, Tunisia where in just one year, the Mediterranean removed the beach and steps went into the sea. Not sand.
@@garypike4996 Oh well that changes everything! 2 places on the vast expanse of coastlines on the entirety of Earth determine what's happening everywhere, eh?
se ve un poco desanjelado, tal vez es el cielo plomizo y esa arena tipo volcanica, la verdad es que contrasta con la luminosidad y vida que se respira del otro lado del continente
@@DonShader Yes Don, you are 100% right but I hope you are humble and acknowledge that the time scale has changed against us my friend and you are experiencing what others never ever experienced in their whole live. You still have plenty of time to join the rumba club (esas mujeres deben ser un canhon y calenton papi, me encantaria aprender a bailar con ellas) and you also can educate yourself instead of so much wasting. Start an online bachelor degree and dance!
Ah, definitely more than you had bargained for, eh? No sooner than you commit to early-morning walks for your health than Mother Nature comes along and almost turns it into wading. I don’t think this is the result of climate change though. Don’t get me wrong - I’m convinced that climate change is real, and that human industry plays a significant part in it, and that the trends in this direction have been in place ever since the 1970s at the very least. But although I’m not a climatologist (or a scientist of any kind) I think this phenomenon of the ocean is something else, and the only question is what. Let’s hope it was a one-off and that the beach can be restored.

Same thing is happening here in Northern Peru.
They're sandbagging our ocean front hotel
Thank you for posting this- I can’t believe my eyes
You're welcome. Mother Nature is pretty amazing.

We have an exercise class in the mornings that I watch from our piso cinco window. I feel so much more fit when they finish.
😆
Thanks, Don! That’s some awesome transformation 😮
Quite the sand sculptures! In addition to the sand, it makes you wander how much crap washed out with it.

I've been told this is all because of the alignment of the moon and Earth and the fact that the moon is at its closest to the Earth.
It is tsunami , wait a little for the big one to come.
My beautiful Ecuador.
You might have an oceanfront condo soon!! 😂
wow, pretty cool actually-natures way of cleansing

It reminds me of the 80's. The water used to reach and cover the streets.
I wonder how many of those little stands watched out to sea, and people lost their livelihood. 😢

I saw several construction cranes on high rises in the distance. How are the real estate.market and rents doing with recent events?
I wouldn't know, you'd have to ask a realtor. Sorry I can't help you on that one.
Woah’
wow amazing beach cleaner

Yep, sea levels are rising...but only on the coast of Ecuador and only near Manta...LOL!
@KG-xt4oq Also, on the mid-coast where I live now.
@@KG-xt4oq How about Miami, where streets now routinely flood?
@@smokingtarheel3003 Are they flooded right now?

King Tides
The ocean is like “too much rain dance, not enough wave dance” 👀
But being serious, maybe just another sign of climate change?
Climate change has been happening for billions of years my friend.

You can have your ocean....I'd take the high desert any day!
