About This Seaport
As the capital of Chiloé Island in Chile's Los Lagos Region, Puerto Castro is shaped by ferry traffic rather than cargo lines: operators move passengers, cars, buses and goods between the island and the mainland around the clock. Fishing, salmon aquaculture and tourism, including cruise calls, drive the local economy. With a shallow cargo berth of only about 4.9 metres, the port suits local traffic and fishing, not international container or bulk services. The region's regular import and export freight runs through Puerto Montt on the mainland, southern Chile's main port. For larger shipments, the mainland remains the right address.
