Guatemala has been struck by a magnitude 6.0 earthquake on its Pacific coast near the border with El Salvador, the US Geological Survey has reported.
The earthquake, some 100 kilometres deep, was centred about 100 kilometres southeast of Guatemala City.
The agency said the quake was centred 60 miles southeast of Guatemala City.
"We felt a tremor that was a bit strong. We are monitoring the area but there is no damage here. It was a light movement that lasted for a few seconds," said Luis Medina from the Guatemalan tourist office in Puerto Quetzal, on the south coast.
