Overview
Machalilla National Park is in the Manabí province on Ecuador's central coast. Offshore, Isla de la Plata is known for its marine birds and migratory humpback whales. Near Puerto López town, secluded Los Frailes Beach shelters nesting sea turtles.
Description
Between June and October, around 7,000 humpback whales travel from Antarctica to Ecuador’s coast. They migrate to this area to mate and give birth in Ecuador’s warm Pacific waters. Machalilla National Park is ideally located for visitors to come and watch the humpback whales that have gathered near the coast.
