Chone, Administrative center in Manabí Province, Ecuador.
The city of Chone lies along a river at 17 meters above sea level in the coastal region of northern Manabí Province.
Friar José Antonio Cedeño from Portoviejo established Chone on August 7, 1735, marking the start of its development as an agricultural center.
Inhabitants of Chone maintain agriculture traditions through the cultivation of cocoa, coffee, banana, cassava, and maize for national and international markets.
Residents construct their houses on bamboo stilts to protect against floods during the rainy season, adapting to the natural conditions.
The local gastronomy features the Pacific fat sleeper fish, prepared fried and accompanied by rice, plantain, and fresh vegetables.
