GENERAL VILLAMIL PLAYAS._ can be reached along the coastal highway from Guayaquil. On kilometer 62 at "Progreso" (Gómez Rendón), the road divides. One branch goes to Salinas within the Península de Santa Elena and the other to Playas, which is 30km from Progreso. Playas is a famous getaway beach resort for city dwellers, also known as General Villamil on local maps. It is also infamous as a major fishing village and as the fleets of fishing vessels returns it is plagued with pelicans and frigate birds who pray around the area for loose scraps and leftovers.

Many locals also have their own beach homes located here in addition to several hotels, restaurants and bars. Peak time in holiday season is from December to April. There are also several showers, toilets and rooms for changing into bathing costumes along the beach, with fresh water, at moderate costs for rental, you may also use the area for good surfing with several major points for embarking on your chosen surf although be careful at weekends as overcrowding in the water can be dangerous as surfers crisscross in front of more experienced surfers. The whole area is encompassed by a recently improved Malecón through additional tree lined roads and grassed areas.

El Pelao is located northwest from Playas, an isolated long beach great for surfing and worth visiting. An interesting stroll is to El Morro, a village with a large wooden old church with an outstanding appearance, surrounded by mysterious rock formations. To get there also, take a truck on Avenida Guayaquil and Avenida Paquisha.

From the village of El Morro some 4 km further on the same road is Puerto del Morro, with a huge mangrove estuary, where you can rent a boat to visit the mangroves (Dolphins have been seen here) .

Further up the coast is Engabao, where you'll see a group of isolated beaches and fishing boats along the road with many surfing places. You can hire a truck from Av. Guayaquil and Paquisha .
