Where to stay in Crucita?

-For a clean, safe, Spartan, budget option right on the boardwalk I recommend the Marlin Hostal, $15 per person.

Where to eat in Crucita?

-If seafood is your thing, look no further than Las Gaviotas Restaurant right at the far end of the boardwalk near the mountain in Crucita. Most dishes are under $5.  Try the Shrimp with veggies (Camaron con vegetales, $5)

What to do in Crucita?

-Hand gliding, the top draw in Crucita and a must try when in the area, tandem flights are available for beginners.

-Visit one of the largest fish markets on the coast, walk through it, hold your nose, be amazed, on the far end of the boardwalk opposite from the mountain.

Where to stay in San Jacinto?

-For a clean, safe, Spartan, budget option right on the boardwalk I recommend the Marco’s Hostal in the town center, with prices starting around $10 per person.

What to do in San Jacinto?

-Chat up one of the local fishermen and get them to allow you to tag along on a shrimp fishing outing, Ecuadorian style.  They’ll likely let you go if you ask.

-Dolphin, whale watch right on the beach as the orcas come right up to the edge of the waves, especially in the months July-September.
