Travel to the province of Santa Elena and get to know its natural charms with this Salinas and Ballenita Beach Day Trip. You'll visit two of the great attractions of the Ecuadorian coast.

Description

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Guayaquil at 8:30 am and head east towards the province of Santa Elena, whose coast is full of tourist attractions!

First, we'll visit the peninsula of the same name to discover the Salinas Spa, considered the most important in Ecuador. After talking about the incredible thermal properties of the waters in the area, we'll continue the tour of Salinas by visiting the El Morro viewpoint, Punta Lobeira and the Chocolatera Beach, where seagulls and sea lions live.

After enjoying some free time on the beach, we'll go to the Nautical Museum, where you can have a delicious lunch with views of the sea on your own. The restaurant is a real viewpoint!

With our energies recharged, we'll enjoy the charms of Ballenita, one of the most coveted beaches in Santa Elena. You'll have free time to walk on the beach, swim in the sea or take pictures of this incredible natural environment.

Finally, we'll start our return to your hotel in Guayaquil, arriving at 4:30 pm.
