  • This island can be reached by hirong a boat in Puerto Lopez. It means Silver Island and is sometimes referred to as the Galapagos of the poors.
    The island is reputed for bird watching but it depends on the season so make sure it really worth it before going.
    Once again because of this stupid accident I could not go there. You can have a look at Maillekeul's page for further information and pics.

  • The main attraction of Puerto Lopez (and the reason why we went there) is the proximity with Parque Nacional Machalilla.
    Numerous agencies offer tours to the park.
    Unfortunately, because of a stupid accident I won't tell here, I could not go there.
    Your hotel or any agency should be able to provide you with the necessary information.

    You can see the fishermen coming back to the beach and unload their catch most mornings.
    Many of the fishing boats are blue wooden small boats, which, together with the seabirds trying to grab the scraps, offer a nice view on the morning.

    Whales!

  • We went to see the humpback whales with one of the agencies offering a boat trip out to see them. And they were just there, a glimpse of a tail, or even a whale jumping out of the water. The trip then goes close to Isla de la Plata, the 'poor man's Galapagos' just off the coast. You can see big fish, and birds (not a bird lover but I'm sure they're birds worth seeing...) I'm not usually travel sick but this boat trip was quite choppy choppy!
