Why not going to a tourist complex inside an urban city where every family can enjoy a morning or relax for a day? Nowadays, “La Playita” located in the South of El Guasmo, is a good choice to visit for Guayaquileneans. “La Playita” has its name due to the inhabitants of this sector in the south of the city, because they noticed the saltywater and the sand of the place, so the name came easily to their minds. This complex was always a place for distraction, but not always was as wonderful as today; for more than twenty years “La Playita” was full of mud, grass and insecurity. The rehabilitation of this area was part of a Municipality project for restoring marginal zones.

This is exactly located in San Felipo cooperative, simply to access from the downtown of the city by the Domingo Comin Avenue, then going straight away along Abdón CalderonAvenue, and then we arrive to the complex. “La Playita” is settled in the beach of Cobina estuary that rises in the Guayas River by the Esclusas and flow into the Autoridad Portuaria estuary.
The restoring of the complex, also contributed with the tiding up of 455 houses near “La Playita” that can be compared with the restoring done in “Las Peñas” in the Santa Ana Hill. All the worksmeant an investment of US$ 1’360.000. “La Playita” was finally inaugurated on April 18, 2004 by the Major of Guayaquil, lawyer Jaime Nebot Saadi, and in the event there was an exposition of paintings and puppets, done by children of nine to eleven years of the sector. In the speech, the Mayor said “The first artificial beach of the city does not have rich people, so it has poorpeople”. The complex has good security, with four guards; the Navy is also in charge of the vigilance of “La Playita”. In general, this place has too many to offer different people or families, now we will discover and know more about its attractions.
