So mancora was amazing defo my fav place do far !! The beach was just the best. We had a very relaxing meal on the first night and a good sleep in the morning so a great start to then go surfing before lunch.

It was so exhausting though to swim back to the waves so feel like I had a good work out! Me and one of the other girls also went for a run on the...
