Playa Tortuguita is a beautiful beach in Ecuador located within the Machalilla National Park. Its sand is white and its water turquoise, making it a great spot for snorkeling or just relaxing on the beach. Tourists visiting Playa Tortuguita can enjoy a wide variety of activities such as hiking the Los Frailes trail, bird watching, kayaking, taking pictures at Mirador Las Fragatas or spotting sea turtles nesting in the sand - a truly amazing experience! It is also possible to visit nearby beaches like Puerto Cayo and Ayampe or take a short stroll to the Islote Sucre viewpoint. Whatever activity you choose, make sure to bring along your water bottle and snacks, your camera and sunscreen so that you can enjoy this incredible place to the fullest.
