The Port of Progreso is a port facility located at Progreso, Yucatán, on Mexico's Gulf coast. It lies on the Yucatán Peninsula, 36 kilometres (22 mi) northeast of the state capital at Mérida.^[1]

A multipurpose port, Progreso handles cruise ships, breakbulk, dry bulk and containers, and has a single jetty handling tanker traffic.^[1]

The port also contains the world's longest pier, over 8,000 m. in length, as verified by the Guinness Book of World Records.^[3]

In December 2024, the Mexican government announced an investment of USD1.6 billion in six key strategic ports, including Progreso. Progreso's share will be USD367 million and will fund the creation of an 80 hectare platform to accommodate a shipyard and terminals for liquefied gas and petroleum. It will also include extending the Maya Train to Progreso, allowing freight trains to deliver cargo to the port.^[4]

The shipyard will be built and operated by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, who will invest more than USD150 million in building 2 graving docks at the port.^[5]
