Puerto Morín
Virú, Peru
Puerto Morín is a small coastal village and beach located in the Virú District of La Libertad Region, Peru, about 45 kilometers south of the city of Trujillo. It developed from a fishing area known as Guañape Cove in the late 19th century, named after a French entrepreneur Carlos Marie Morin Dutot who helped build a small dock.
Today, Puerto Morín serves as a gateway to the Guañape Islands, popular for their rich marine life including sea lions and seabirds, making the village a notable spot for fishing and ecotourism. The area combines traditional coastal village charm with access to natural attractions along Peru's northern Pacific coast.
