I arrived in Salinas yesterday. Montañita - Salinas: around 120 km, 3 hours on the bus, cost: 1 pound 20 pence. The hotel I found cost 7 pounds a night (such a rip off !!), it is because Salinas is very different than the places in Ecuador I visited before. It is a proper sea resort, well-developed with big hotels by the beach (in the picture). To get to Salinas you travel via "Ruta del Sol", beautiful and relaxing route:
