The flag of Puerto López is horizontally divided green-white-blue.
Green
represents the vegetation and the abundant agriculture of Machalilla National
Park*.
White represents the purity of the inhabitants and the legacy of the
pre-Colombian cultures, like Manteña, Machalilla and Valdivia.
Blue
represents the sea, source of work and income for our people.

*Zona Marina Parque Nacional Machalilla. 14,430 ha.
A complex of shallow
coastal waters, sandy beaches and off-shore islands fringed by coral reefs. The
site includes the mouths of several seasonal rivers and streams and remnant dry
tropical forest. Archaeologically interesting with evidence of civilizations
dating from 3,000 B.C. to 1526 A.D. The area supports an important fishery,
