One of the places where you can see turtles is Centro de Crianza Arnaldo Tupiza, the path to which is hidden in mangrove groves. They resemble a real labyrinth. This is not a zoo but a place where turtles are raised to be set free in the future. The reserve is quite big. All the animals look happy because they are really cherished here. Here, you can feed them, keep an eye on their habits and learn a lot about them. Near it, there is the lake inhabited by flamingos.
The other place where you can see turtles is Asilo de la Paz. The zoo is small but very interesting because the first settlers lived here once. Besides, you can see the unique flora of the island here. The Galeria Aymara museum is worth being visited. Here, you can see the statuettes of sea dwellers made by local masters. Here, you can buy souvenirs that will bring back your vacation here. You should also visit the San Cristobal Interpretation Center to learn about the animals dwelling in particular habitats. The Maki-Art Gallery and Galería Exótico Ecuador are very interesting too. They present the collection of local artists’ works you can even buy. Copyright www.orangesmile.com

Zenia Spa is an excellent place for family recreation. Here, you can enjoy spa centers in a peaceful atmosphere.

The beach is an excellent place for hiking and admiring sunset but not for swimming (because of the cold water). Small children really like watching animals dwelling in these places.
