Activity itinerary

Pacoche Wildlife Refuge

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
We will start the experience with a guided hike through the tropical wet forest of Pacoche Wildlife Refuge, one of the most special ecosystems on the Manabite coast. During the tour, travellers will walk along a nature trail surrounded by native vegetation, trees, birds and forest sounds. Hopefully, we can observe howler monkeys in their natural habitat as the guide explains the ecological importance of Pacoche and its connection to the coastal life of the area. This hike is moderately difficult and takes place at a quiet pace, ideal for families and travellers who want to enjoy nature without a high physical demand. It is recommended to wear comfortable shoes, repellent, water and sun protection.

Playa San Lorenzo

  • 45m
We will visit Playa San Lorenzo, a wide and beautiful beach facing the Pacific Ocean, ideal for walking, resting, taking photos and enjoying the coastal landscape after the experience in the Pacoche forest. Guests can take a bath if they wish, provided the sea conditions permit and after receiving safety recommendations from the guide. Water entry will depend on the waves, currents, climate and comfort level of each traveller. If the conditions are not suitable for swimming, the visit will focus on walking along the beach, enjoying the scenery, taking pictures and relaxing in front of the sea.

Playa San Lorenzo

  • 1h
We will finish the tour in a Restaurant of San Lorenzo parish, where travellers can relax after the forest and beach experience, and enjoy local food in front of the coastal environment. Each traveller can choose directly from the menu their favourite dish, such as fresh seafood, fish or other Manabitas options. Food and drinks are not included in the tour price. Each traveller orders and pays directly at the restaurant according to their preferences.
