People likely experienced weak shaking there. Several smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of Guatemala, Guatemala City, 143 km (89 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake was probably felt as weak shaking.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry58 km (36 mi)N of epicenterPuerto San Jose(pop: 18,700)III: WeakMunicipio de San Jose, Departamento de EscuintlaGuatemala61 km (38 mi)N of epicenterIztapa(pop: 4,020)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala80 km (50 mi)N of epicenterLa Gomera(pop: 24,000)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala87 km (54 mi)NE of epicenterGuazacapan(pop: 18,900)III: WeakDepartamento de Santa RosaGuatemala90 km (56 mi)N of epicenterMasagua(pop: 45,300)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala90 km (56 mi)NE of epicenterChiquimulilla(pop: 12,800)III: WeakDepartamento de Santa RosaGuatemala93 km (58 mi)N of epicenterLa Democracia(pop: 13,400)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala101 km (63 mi)N of epicenterEscuintla(pop: 156,300)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala106 km (66 mi)N of epicenterSanta Lucia Cotzumalguapa(pop: 112,800)III: WeakMunicipio de Santa Lucia Cotzumalguapa, Departamento de EscuintlaGuatemala113 km (70 mi)N of epicenterPalin(pop: 65,900)III: WeakMunicipio de Palin, Departamento de EscuintlaGuatemala113 km (70 mi)NE of epicenterBarberena(pop: 47,100)III: WeakDepartamento de Santa RosaGuatemala113 km (70 mi)NE of epicenterCuilapa(pop: 41,400)III: WeakDepartamento de Santa RosaGuatemala114 km (71 mi)NW of epicenterTiquisate(pop: 18,200)III: WeakDepartamento de EscuintlaGuatemala120 km (74 mi)N of epicenterPatulul(pop: 40,700)III: WeakDepartamento de SuchitepequezGuatemala121 km (75 mi)NE of epicenterJalpatagua(pop: 28,800)III: WeakDepartamento de JutiapaGuatemala121 km (75 mi)N of epicenterAlotenango(pop: 24,000)III: WeakDepartamento de SacatepequezGuatemala122 km (76 mi)N of epicenterAmatitlan(pop: 71,800)III: WeakMunicipio de Amatitlan, Departamento de GuatemalaGuatemala123 km (76 mi)N of epicenterSanta Maria de Jesus(pop: 21,800)III: WeakMunicipio de Santa Maria de Jesus, Departamento de SacatepequezGuatemala124 km (77 mi)N of epicenterYepocapa(pop: 34,900)III: WeakDepartamento de ChimaltenangoGuatemala125 km (78 mi)N of epicenterVilla Canales(pop: 155,400)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala126 km (78 mi)N of epicenterCiudad Vieja(pop: 33,400)III: WeakDepartamento de SacatepequezGuatemala126 km (78 mi)N of epicenterFraijanes(pop: 58,900)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala126 km (78 mi)N of epicenterPetapa(pop: 135,400)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala128 km (80 mi)N of epicenterVilla Nueva(pop: 618,400)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala129 km (80 mi)N of epicenterAntigua Guatemala(pop: 46,100)III: WeakDepartamento de SacatepequezGuatemala135 km (84 mi)N of epicenterSanta Catarina Pinula(pop: 80,600)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala135 km (84 mi)N of epicenterSan Jose Pinula(pop: 79,800)III: WeakMunicipio de San Jose Pinula, Departamento de GuatemalaGuatemala138 km (86 mi)NW of epicenterChicacao(pop: 60,700)III: WeakDepartamento de SuchitepequezGuatemala139 km (86 mi)N of epicenterSantiago Sacatepequez(pop: 29,200)III: WeakDepartamento de SacatepequezGuatemala139 km (87 mi)N of epicenterSumpango(pop: 28,500)III: WeakDepartamento de SacatepequezGuatemala139 km (87 mi)N of epicenterMixco(pop: 465,800)III: WeakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala140 km (87 mi)N of epicenterChimaltenango(pop: 97,000)III: WeakDepartamento de ChimaltenangoGuatemala142 km (88 mi)NE of epicenterJutiapa(pop: 145,900)III: WeakDepartamento de JutiapaGuatemala143 km (89 mi)N of epicenterGuatemala City(pop: 994,900)III: WeakMunicipio de Guatemala, Departamento de GuatemalaGuatemala144 km (90 mi)N of epicenterPatzun(pop: 58,200)III: WeakMunicipio de Patzun, Departamento de ChimaltenangoGuatemala145 km (90 mi)N of epicenterSantiago Atitlan(pop: 33,300)III: WeakDepartamento de SololaGuatemala146 km (91 mi)NW of epicenterMazatenango(pop: 77,400)III: WeakDepartamento de SuchitepequezGuatemala148 km (92 mi)N of epicenterSan Juan Sacatepequez(pop: 136,900)II: Very weakMunicipio de San Juan Sacatepequez, Departamento de GuatemalaGuatemala150 km (93 mi)N of epicenterChinautla(pop: 105,000)II: Very weakDepartamento de GuatemalaGuatemala156 km (97 mi)NW of epicenterRetalhuleu(pop: 90,500)II: Very weakDepartamento de RetalhuleuGuatemalaNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Get the Android appCompare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 5 km2 (2 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 4 km (2 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)2026-06-21 07:26:589 minutes ago4.71 km0 km - This quake61 km Al Sur De Iztapa, GuatemalaMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 26 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 488 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 7 or higher: 0.02 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 41.7 years)Mag. 6 or higher: 0.35 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 2.8 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 4.2 quakes per yearMag. 4 or higher: 72 quakes per year (or 6 quakes per month)Mag. 3 or higher: 323 quakes per year (or 26.9 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 483 quakes per year (or 40 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a very high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 3 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 40 to 45 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
