Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala’s main Pacific Ocean port, serves as a gateway to some of the country’s most captivating tourist destinations. While the port itself is not a primary tourist attraction, it is an excellent starting point for exploring the rich cultural tapestry and natural beauty of the surrounding areas.
One of the most notable destinations near Puerto Quetzal, and the main reason why cruise ships include it in their itineraries, is the historic city of Antigua Guatemala, a UNESCO World Heritage site, located just 90 minutes away.
