Puerto Chiapas lies on the Pacific coast in southern Mexico. Built in 1975, it has served to promote tourism in this area. It is a small port town that handles the export of agricultural products grown in the region, an area of rich green lowlands and foothills. The surrounding district has some beautiful beaches including Playa Linda in Puerto Chiapas itself, and San Benito.
