Ecuador, a growth opportunity The city of Salinas is a short drive from Guayaquil, the economic center of Ecuador. Salinas is a resort town, with miles of sandy beaches, new hotels, restaurants, and sidewalk cafes. While many Europeans have discovered Salinas, as a beautiful resort, colorful and economical, Americans are just now finding this delightful escape.
Salinas was once a part of the province controlled by the large city of Guayaquil. Recently it became an independent area, and the emotional politics of Latin America have come into play. Some investors from GYE have pulled out offering a great investment opportunity for Americans.
