No, not usually. Even though Ecuador is on the equator, the current next to the country brings in colder water from the Arctic. On the east coast of Florida, the Gulf Stream brings in much warmer waters from the tropics. It takes a long time for water to change temperature, so it usually reflects wherever it just came from.
