Puerto Comodoro Rivadavia

Puerto Comodoro Rivadavia, Commercial port in Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina.

Puerto Comodoro Rivadavia is a commercial port with two main docking areas: an international dock measuring 288 meters long and a fishing dock extending 192 meters. The international dock accommodates vessels up to 190 meters long with a depth of 10 meters, while the fishing dock handles smaller boats up to 50 meters.

The port's origin lies in the search for an outlet for the newly founded Colonia Sarmiento: Francisco Pietrobelli reached the Rada Tilly coast with Tehuelche companions on 11 March 1889. The Maciel pier was built in 1908, followed in 1910 by the km 5 pier for railway materials and in 1913 by a YPF loading pier. Construction of the modern port began in 1923 on the Punta Borja and Sud shoals, using sackcloth bags filled with concrete by Comodoro women, and from 1929 it took over cargo handling from the dismantled Maciel pier.

The port is named after Antonio Morán, the first mayor of Comodoro Rivadavia; the city's wind farm also bears his name. Its main activity is commercial fishing, alongside mineral reception and, to a lesser degree, general cargo and fuel supply. In 1929, with much of the port finished, it handled 4,500 tonnes of wool, 1,139 tonnes of sheepskins and 33 tonnes of cattle hides.

The port sits along the Atlantic coast and is accessible by road from the city of Comodoro Rivadavia. Visitors should know that active port operations may restrict access to certain areas, so it is best to stay aware of your surroundings when moving through the zone.

The port's breakwater was built on soft seabed using burlap sacks filled with concrete, sewn by women of Comodoro Rivadavia in sheds at the port entrance. Cement had to be imported from Germany in wooden barrels, and a stone-crushing mill was set up on site. Work on the Restinga Punta Borja and Restinga Sud began in 1923.
