Isla de la PLata Boat Trip - This leaves from the hotel at 8:30 Am going to Puerto Lopez.

The view is breath taking! Once you get back down you will have a boxed lunch aboard the boat and have time to snorkel the south side of the island. The marine life includes, Manta rays, turtles, and many colorful fish! you will return to Montanita Estatesat 6PM.

Isla Salango Boat Trip -  This tour leaves at 8:45AM and also launhes from Puerto Lopez. You can observe the blue footed boobies on the way out to the island. The island is much closer than Isla de la PLata. Once in front of the island the boat will park and allow you to kayak around ( there are 2 for taking turns) and also to snorkle. There are fishing poles available also. You can also swim over to the island ( its very easy just past the waves) and explore the island or lay on the beach and relax. You then return to Puerto Lopez for lunch at a family style home and the last 45 min you are able to visit the national park of Machallila ( Los Frailes Beach). Its a cove so, the swiming is easy and beautiful. You can also hike trails there to see the different bird species. You arrive back at the hotel at 5:30 PM. This tour is HIGHLY reccomended!
