I'd simply describe Diablo as like a huge festival on the beach. Bohemian and creative, things seemed to go on 24\7 in Diablo. Evening circus shows on the beach, random jam seasons in peoples front gardens, tango on the streets, impromtue house parties, food stalls with tons of yummy treats, and camping out made it feel like we were at a festival.
Jumping off the bus and straight into the main street, we spotted a hostel right away with some girls pitching a tent out front. Quick to see the opportunity, we asked if we could do the same and got ourselves a lovely little place to stay 2-mins from the beach. Admitedly, not condusive to a good nights sleep but it was cool to be in the hussle and bustle for a couple of days. We ended up meeting lots of people from Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay on their Jan vacations (people more our ages, rather than the OAPs of del Este!)
The first night we shared some freshly cooked Paella, watched the sunset and sang along to an impromtue guitar jam in the little bar down on the beach. Traditionally a fishing village, we were able to whip up some pretty delicious seafood concoctions of our own whilst in Diablo.
The hostels hammocks were perfect for whiling away the time and the beach for tanathons kept us busy. In Jan Diablo seemed to be all about relaxing, taking things as they come and enjoying whatever random event happens to be going on - so that's just what we did!
