Miss Ecuador is a national Beauty pageant in Ecuador. The current Miss Ecuador is Daniela Cepeda from Guayas. She won the title on April 22, 2017.
The very first winner of Miss Ecuador pageant was Sara Chacón Zúñiga from Guayas province in 1930. The contest was inactive for more than 20 years until 1955 when Leonor Carcache won the first modern title of Miss Ecuador and became the first representative of the country to the Miss Universe pageant.
Representatives from the 24 provinces that make up Ecuador compete annually for the title of Miss Ecuador among others.
