The Machalilla National Park is a protected area along the Ecuadorian coast in the Manabi province. It is located South of the Mirador San Jose near Puerto Lopez and the small parish Machalilla. The Machalilla National Park has many beaches, forests and islands.
When travelling along the coast you will notice many small fishing boats. The main business for lots of small villages is fishing. The Ecuadorian waters are filled with an array of fish including weevil gacho, wahoo, yellowfin tune, big eye tuna, cherna, dorado, sierra, silver croaker, murico, grouper, robalo and huayaipe.
