Puerto Cabello
Puerto Cabello, Carabobo, Venezuela
Description
Puerto Cabello is Venezuela's port city par excellence and one of the logistical hearts of Carabobo state. Formally founded in 1811 as San Juan Bautista de Puerto Cabello, its name evokes the calm of its marine waters, so serene that, according to tradition, a ship could be moored with a single hair. Guarded by the historic Castillo San Felipe and witness to decisive battles of independence, Puerto Cabello preserves a colonial old town full of character and has always served as a connection point between Venezuela and the maritime trade of the world.
Puerto Cabello holds a population of around 180,280 inhabitants, exceeding 259,000 in its metropolitan area, spread across a surface area of roughly 729 km² (Wikipedia, "Puerto Cabello", accessed 2026). Its economy revolves around the port, the most important in the country for the movement of imports and exports, together with the shipbuilding industry, food processing, commerce, and services tied to maritime activity.
