Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala

Puerto Quetzal is Guatemala’s largest Pacific Ocean port and also the gateway to some of the most fascinating and beautiful sightseeing in the country.
 Guatemala is from words in a native language, variously identified as "Quauhtemellan", "land of the eagle", or "Uhatzmalha", "mountain where water gushes". Hence, it is also translated as "land of eternal spring".
Guatemala has a rich and distinctive culture from the long mix of elements from Spain and the native Maya people. This diverse history and the natural beauty of the land have created a destination rich in interesting and scenic sites.
One of Guatemala's original commercial developments in the 19th century, coffee production is still of vital importance to the national economy.Guatemala's production of coffee is equally important in the global economy, as Guatemala is the world's third largest exporter of coffee.
After coffee, sugar is Guatemala's most profitable crop, Sugar has also shown promise as an expanding industry in Guatemala, particularly because it can be produced in raw form or processed within the country prior to export, augmenting its value.
Bananas, also remain one of Guatemala's top agricultural exports.
