Manta Cruise: Best Cruises to Manta Ecuador

This seaside port city’s charm extends to every part of your experience here while stopped on a Manta cruise. While it’s not the flashiest destination you’ll visit on a South America cruise, it well makes up for that with its laidback spirit and quirky embrace of its biggest (and smelliest) industry: tuna fishing.

The best way to describe Manta is full of life. The friendliness of the people and an unhurried pace of life mean that things move a little slower here. You might not be able to see it all in a day, but that’s not the point. Manta is meant to be enjoyed, not consumed. Buy one of the region’s signature Panama hats for shade from the strong Ecuadorian sun. Day trip to El Murciélago, surf in Playa Bonita, or see endangered and protected wildlife at Pacoche Reserve. Throw away your to-do list, put away your phone, and explore Manta, Ecuador at your leisure.

Please Note: While we don't currently sail to Manta, you can still discover the beauty of Ecuador on one of our cruises to the Galapagos. Browse our Galapagos cruises below.
