Puerto Acosta Municipality

Puerto Acosta Municipality, Rural municipality in Eliodoro Camacho Province, La Paz Department, Bolivia

Puerto Acosta Municipality is the first municipal section of Eliodoro Camacho Province in Bolivia's La Paz Department, with its seat at Puerto Acosta. It is divided into four cantons: Puerto Acosta, Parajachi, Chiñaya and San Juan de Cancanani. The 2001 census recorded 27,296 inhabitants, when the municipality still included Umanata and Escoma as cantons.

Puerto Acosta Municipality was the first municipal section of Eliodoro Camacho Province in the La Paz Department. Until 2009 it comprised nine cantons, including Umanata and Escoma. On 6 February 2009 Umanata became the province's fourth municipal section and Escoma the fifth, leaving Puerto Acosta with four cantons: Puerto Acosta, Parajachi, Chiñaya and San Juan de Cancanani.

The municipality's seat, also called Puerto Acosta, lies on the shore of Lake Titicaca, and its population was counted at 6,745 in the 2001 census, the largest of the cantons. The other three cantons are Parajachi, Chiñaya and San Juan de Cancanani. Aymara is the everyday language of these highland communities.

The climate is cool and the air is thin at this elevation, so travelers need time to acclimatize to the altitude. The dry season offers better conditions for exploring and moving around the settlements.

Until 2009 the municipality counted nine cantons; on 6 February 2009 Umanata and Escoma were separated as new municipalities, leaving Puerto Acosta with four cantons: Puerto Acosta, Parajachi, Chiñaya and San Juan de Cancanani.
