Port of Guayacan

Guayacan Port (UN/LOCODE: CLGYC) is a strategic maritime facility located in the Coquimbo Region of Chile at coordinates -29.98°S, -71.37°W, operating within the America/Santiago timezone. Positioned along Chile's central coast, this port serves as a critical node in regional maritime commerce, facilitating the export of agricultural products, minerals, and manufactured goods through the Pacific shipping lanes. Its infrastructure supports cargo handling operations including bulk commodities, containerized freight, and liquid bulk transfers, while its proximity to the Atacama Desert hinterland enhances its logistical significance for mining and agricultural sectors. The port's integration into international shipping networks via the Chilean fjord system and transpacific trade routes underscores its dual role as both a regional distribution hub and gateway to broader Latin American markets.
