Travel to Ecuador

Tourists illustrate Ecuador as a place where four greatly different worlds come as one. In Ecuador, you can look at the magic on the Amazon jungle, stand in the wonderful Andes Mountains, unwind in the warm Pacific Ocean, or even visit the renowned Galapagos Islands. Ecuador has experienced something of a renaissance of late, its busy capital Quito attracting travelers from all over the world to test its fine cuisine and beautiful colonial architecture. Then there are picturesque Andean villages where colorful markets are set against amazing, volcanic panorama, and obviously the Amazon. In the biggest rainforest on the world the adventure really begins, and yet the cultural foundation of the country keeps getting wealthier, with ancient tribes still booming in the jungle.

Diving in Ecuador

Ecuador is a marine life lover’s heaven, full with species found nowhere else on world. The greater part of divers head directly for the Galapagos Islands. The waters enclosing this group of deep-sea, volcanic islands form a sheltered sea reserve where near no profitable fishing has happened in the last five decades. Divers can take benefit of everything this area has to proffer on a liveaboard tour. These boats have the aptitude to take a trip to the northern dive sites, for instance those around Wolf Island, Punta Vicente Roca and Darwin Island which are too distant from populated islands to be visited in a single day.
