    To go to Isla de la Plata you have to join a group managed by one of local travel agencies in Puerto López, the only place so far where boats leave to go there (though I heard that authorities will allow soon boats leave from another closer beach, Puerto Cayo, making only a 30-minute boat travel).

    There's no place to stay or to eat, so travel agency guides take supplies with them, but if it is a sunny day, take extra water with you, there is a very long walk waiting for you.

    By the way, once there you should be given the chance to choose what hiking path you want, there is a short easy one (1 hour) and a longer one (3 hours) which goes through a very irregular terrain (though with the best views also). Be wise because sun rays after 11 am are not a joke in Ecuador, specially if you will be exposed for 3 hours.

    After returning to the boat you will be able to rest and then have a very well-deserved dip in the ocean with lots of colorful fishes swimming around, particularly when feeded, they love bread.
