Just east of Tela is the Garífuna village of La Ensenada (not to be confused with the resort of the same name), a tiny beachfront town wildly popular on the weekend with locals for a day on the beach. Champas with picnic tables line the waterfront and are available for rent, and boatmen ply the beach, putting together short water tours. While foreigners might attract a few looks, people are friendly, and the town is a great place to get off the well-trodden tourist path.
