Here, we present the draft genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli strain belonging to sequence type 617 (ST617), isolated from beach ghost shrimp from polluted coastal waters in Brazil. These data provide valuable information for comparative genomic analysis, related to the dissemination of MDR E. coli in marine ecosystems.
