Guanaqueros Bay (Spanish: Bahía de Guanaqueros) is a bay in Chile's Coquimbo Region.[1] The bay is U-shaped, open to the northwest. Its western boundary is made up by Punta Guanaquero, a spur of Cerro Guanaqueros. The beach of Guanaros Bay lies about 34 km south of the port city of Coquimbo.[2] The area around the bay has a cold desert climate.[1]
