Overview

Translated from <www.gobernacionguayas.gov.ec> (defunct):
"The flag has two equal fields, the upper golden yellow, symbolizing the richness of its production, and the lower emerald green, symbolizing the greenness of its fields. A white star in the middle represents the rural parish."
The canton is made of the single rural parish of Tarifa and 105 "recintos" (enclosures).
The provincial website gives something slightly different:
"The flag is made of two horizontal stripes, the first, pale yellow, symbolizing the fame of the canton and its celebrities, and the second, emerald green, representing the exuberant agriculture, all over the stripes, a star."

Translated from <www.turismoguayas.com> (defunct): "The flag has two strips, green and yellow, with 6 stars in the middle. "
