Poro Point, also known historically as San Fernando Point (Spanish: Punta San Fernando), is a headland and peninsula located in the city of San Fernando, La Union, on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. It projects northwesterly about 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) into the South China Sea.[1] It was named after its location within barangay Poro and is the site of Poro Point Freeport Zone, a special economic zone established since 1993.[3]
