'''Champotón''' is a city in the state of [[Campeche]], [[Mexico]].
It is the third-largest community in the state, behind Campeche City and [[Ciudad del Carmen]].

The famous battle "Mala Pelea" occurred here in 1517 when Spanish Hernández de Córdoba was rejected by the Mayas.

Champoton's actual economy is fishing and cultivation of coconut, sugar cane, corn and bean.

Here one may find seafood restaurants usually located by the beach.
