Some call it "a bit of Miami, but apart from the sun sand and surf, it's really nothing better than Miami. Once again I came here during the off season.

During the high season, they say, the beaches of Salinas are so full of people almost every square inch of sand was covered with a towel, an umbrella organization of oil and combed. The streets are clogged with cars with sand Cruising fans even more, and the Malecon is wall to wall with everything from ice cream vendors Hawking and visorsEarrings shark tooth shrimp on skewers, hot grill.

If you are agoraphobic any way, then the low season from May to December is the time to go, to Salinas, Ecuador's most popular seaside resort on the Pacific coast.

About 90 miles from Guayaquil, the largest city in Ecuador, Salinas, long a destination for a holiday in Ecuador. Skyscraper condominiums line the road from the beach. Seafood restaurants and trendy trendy alive at night. (Read the restSeason will see the streets at night with young people and be seen crowded.)

Unlike Miami, even if Salinas is a relatively small city. The beach is almost perfectly divided in two by a pier where he stands on the banks of the Salinas Yacht Club. The crescent of sandy bay on the north side, where the abundance of the action takes place is Salinas Beach. Chipipa in the South Beach, is quieter and more focused.

As expected, most activities here, turn aroundWater sports: fishing, whale watching, wakeboarding, water skiing, sailing, parachuting, paragliding, surfing was, Quiksilver ISA World Junior Surfing Championship held here last spring.

Despite the variety of activities, the Salinas, however, one of the seaside resorts of the world, less expensive. A beautiful private room in a charming sweet, just a block from the seawall can be done for $ 30 per night for a single person. A meat or fish dinner in one of those trendy restaurantswill cost only $ 5 or $ 6. Chow Down or fish or shrimp, cooked the way you want to eat at the local Mercado, more than one for about $ 2.50.

And those condos that I said? I have a new eighth floor with views from floor to ceiling in the magnificent crescent-shaped bay. With three bedrooms, three baths and turns good set only $ 130, 000th
