San Antonio Province

San Antonio Province encompasses 1,511 square kilometers of Pacific coastline, containing six municipalities including the capital port city of San Antonio.

The province gained its current administrative status in 1975 through Decree Law 1317, establishing its position within the Valparaíso Region structure.

The province maintains strong maritime traditions through its fishing communities and port activities, which shape the daily lives of local inhabitants.

The Mediterranean climate with oceanic influences creates favorable conditions for grape cultivation, particularly Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay varieties.

The province houses Chile's primary freight port, which handles a larger volume of cargo than the traditionally dominant port of Valparaíso.
