Guayaquil Travel Guide
Ecuador
Guayaquil is Ecuador’s largest city, with a population of 3,142,466. It is a major urban centre on the country’s Pacific coast and a practical base for exploring the region.
Most visitors arrive by air at Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport (GYE), which serves the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Guayaquil, so nearby coastal beaches are not a defining feature of a stay here.
