The last area we visited in Guayaquil was the old waterfront. It has been converted into a beautiful waterfront area that is frequented by many visitors and residents alike.
The old waterfront area has been completely renovated. The derelict buildings torn town and replaced with grass, pavilions and walkways.
Statues of historical figures that dominated Ecuadorian and Guayaquil’s history are places in various places in the park.
Looking out over the water from the park is not too impressive; however the sea grass bunches played an important part in the flora and fauna population of the Galapagos Islands. It is theorized that these mats carried the ancestors of the current life on the islands.
Looking the other direction, the ground rises rapidly upward from the waterfront topped by a centuries old lighthouse.
