Ecuador Coast Tours & Itineraries

Nevermind the attention-seeking wildlife of the Galapagos Islands and the showy enticements of the Amazon. Sandwiched between South America’s two travel titans is a land of beautiful beach towns, quaint fishing villages, magical mangrove forests and sweeping bays; the sensational coast of Ecuador.

On a custom Ecuador coast itinerary watch for migratory humpback whales, sea lions, and blue-footed boobies on Isla de la Plata off the coast of Ecuador, explore the estuaries and flooded forests of Esmeraldas, and spot nesting sea turtles on secluded Playa Los Frailes near the town of Puerto Lopez. Take a mud bath in Machalilla National Park’s lagoon, ride the surf in Santa Elena, or visit Guayaquil’s old town, Las Peñas.
