Champerico is a town and municipality in the Retalhuleu department in southwestern Guatemala. It is a popular vacation spot for Guatemalans in the region. The picturesque beach town was founded on the Pacific Ocean in 1872,[2] and the paved road to Retalhuleu makes Champerico one of the most important ports on the Pacific.[3] The port handles mostly coffee, timber and sugar.[4] Its population in 2023 is 39,666.[5]
