Salango Island
Located 7 km to the south of Puerto López, Salango is a village with a rich pre-Columbian history and a nearby island called La Isla de Salango ("Salango Island").
In addition to observing the variety of seabirds such as frigates, pelicans, and the famous blue-footed boobies, snorkelling alongside the island reveals a white coral reef, rock fish, and the famous Spondylus, an endangered shellfish endemic to the coast of Salango.
A group of local divers also work as qualified tour guides, and they will share with you their knowledge and experience about the protection and preservation of the unique marine wildlife in this area.
Furthermore, Salango offers trips to the sea in rafts constructed from balsa wood, in the tradition of the Manteña people.
