El Morro Estuary Wildlife refuge is a small fishing village located 9km from Playas, Guayas province, Ecuador. It offers tours of the mangrove swamp, dolphin estuary, and Birds Island. The 3 hour tour includes observing bottle-nosed dolphins and local flora in the estuary for 1.5 hours, and visiting Birds Island to see birds like pelicans, boobies, herons and albatross. The local community has been trained in environmental education and has found a balance between ecotourism and preserving the natural beauty, with affordable prices for national tourists.
