WEEK 5 : CANOA, BAHIA, PUERTO LOPEZ

DAY 30-31  -  CANOA

We only stayed in Canoa for one hot night and explored its main beach the next day.

DAY 32  -  BAHIA

The same goes for Bahia we just used it as a stop over between towns, also we wanted to get an overview of the entire coast. Tom got food poisoning here...

 

DAY 33-35  -  PUERTO LOPEZ
 Famous Los Frailes Beach (and others) situated within Machalilla National park. Probably the nicest beach we`ve seen in Ecuador. Its sand is really clean thanks to its no-smoking and littering policy.
 






 Isla de la Plata, situated 1hour off the coast, is a protected nature reserve. We saw giant sea turtles, Blue Footed Boobies, lots of beautiful fish on the coral reef and sharks - luckily from afar!
