Overlooking the
Pacific ocean the village of Ayampe is located in the
heart of the Ecuadorian coast, 85 km of Santa
Elena, along the famous Route of the Sun (Ruta
del Sol). Río Ayampe (Ayampe river) is
in the middle of the Guayas and Manabí provinces.
This river has given its name to the village and is
an excellent riverside walk either side of these sparkling
crystalline waters. The forest lands are quite humid
although there are higher elevations on the face of
the mountain that produce with the rich soils leafy
trees diverse in nature as well as many fine orchards
that are frequented by exotic hummingbirds and a very
rich fauna.
This part of the Ecuadorian coastline
has outstanding landscapes that you can meditate on
for hours with undisturbed tranquility while at the
end of this magnificent view you'll find "Los
Ahorcados" islands, which are two elevations
that resemble each other as twins whom play unfailingly
with the waves, it is very surreal to view.
Ayampe, is a biodiversity heaven and for
those searching for serenity and rest Ayampe, is one
of the most recommended places to visit.
In Ayampe, there are no Discos or Bars.
This is a quiet town for those looking for complete
rest, avoid noise and is a place for those who will
allow this scenic heaven of sea, river, and mountains
seep deep into the senses within these naturalistic
and tourist resources.
For the last three years Ayampe has become
an excellent alternative for tourism. There are four
hostels servicing this village coastal resort that have
become an integral part in attracting day by day more
visitors from all over the world.
The hostels take advantage of all the
local natural resources. The Finca Punta Ayampe,
for example, is a great house made of cane and wood
amid the forest. From their balconies you can play with
tree branches and see birds close up.
La Tortuga hostel has cabins with
straw roofs, hammocks in the door, paths with grass,
flowers, cactus and other vegetable species. Similar
hostels to this one are La Iguana, Atamari
and Almare.
