### This is Progreso, the Most Important Port in Yucatan
Published by [SIMCA Desarrollos](https://blog.simca.mx/en/author/simca-desarrollos) on Feb 22, 2024 12:45:18 PM
**One of the main beauties of Yucatan**, without a doubt, **is its beaches**, destinations on the Gulf of Mexico that have nothing to envy to the Caribbean beaches, as their sand is also white, the sea is emerald-colored, and the atmosphere is full of peace and tranquility.
Today, we will tell you about the highlights of **Progreso, the most important port in Yucatan, located just a few minutes away from the finest marina in the Mexican Southeast**.
## **A Privileged Port in Yucatan**
**The port of Progreso was inaugurated on July 1, 1871**\*, and throughout the 20th century, it improved its infrastructure to become **the most important tourist gateway in Yucatan and an open border for commercial exchange with the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.**
This port **is located just 30 minutes from Merida**, the capital of the state, which has contributed to its recognition as **the ideal destination for weekend relaxation and strolls along its picturesque boardwalk.** It is a place filled with seaside restaurants and other family-friendly attractions.
## **Enjoy Progreso by Living in the Best Marina**
An interesting fact is that as of 2023, **the Progreso pier holds the Guinness World Record as the longest pier in the world** (6.5 km in length). Additionally, its newly inaugurated **Meteorite Museum**, located precisely on its boardwalk, **is undoubtedly a cultural attraction for both young and old.**
Progreso is a perfect place to swim and relax or, alternatively, to enjoy adventure by participating in water sports. And the best part is that it **is only 10 minutes away from Yucalpeten Resort Marina, the best marina in the Mexican Southeast** and the perfect home to enjoy a great life by the sea.
## **Live Near the Most Important Port in Yucatan**
**Yucalpeten Resort Marina is an exclusive seaside community** featuring a commercial village, boutique hotel, beach club, and a residential area with access to luxurious experiences: oceanfront cinema, motor-free natural pool, natural spa, firepit zone, and much more.
Live near the most important port in Yucatan, **acquire an apartment at Yucalpeten Resort Marina**, and trust in the prestige, quality, and track record of **SIMCA Real Estate**, the creators of this successful project.
