Puerto de Santa Rosa is a smaller fishing port in the Santa Rosa sector of Salinas, complementing the main Puerto Pesquero Artesanal. The Santa Rosa area has a fishing and maritime character, with boat access to the Pacific.
The Port
Puerto de Santa Rosa serves as a launch point for:
- Local artisanal fishing boats
- Sport fishing charter operations (some operate from here)
- Recreational boats
The port area has a more low-key character than the main Salinas waterfront, reflecting the working fishing community of the Santa Rosa sector.
The Santa Rosa Sector
Santa Rosa is a sector of Salinas municipality with a primarily local, residential character. It sits east of the main Salinas tourist area and has fewer tourist facilities.
