Marine aquaculture is emerging as a promising activity in response to the growing global pressure of food resources. Offshore waters are projected as the natural area of expansion of marine aquaculture in open water due to space constraints and lower environmental quality in coastal areas. Ecuador has important fishery and aquaculture industries. Since last few years, several governmental initiatives point to promote the marine aquaculture. However, considering the environmental problems observed in other countries, the development of the marine aquaculture may conflict with the principles of sustainability and environmental vision of the Ecuadorian government. Despite technological advances and the existence of a legal framework for the development of the activity, few concessions for offshore marine fish aquaculture has been authorized. The goal of this study was to structure a research model, based on the Environmental Assessment of last generation, i. e. Sustainability Assessment (ES), leading to the realization of a microzoning of the Ecuadorian sea for a sustainable mariculture of local species snapper (Lutjanus guttatus) and huayaipe (Seriola rivoliana). This work suggests that the activity could be promoted if a study is done by analyzing sustainability of oceanic mariculture in its environmental, social, economic and governance dimensions, establishing the most appropriate areas to implement projects in Ecuador.
