Mehuín is a small Chilean town and a busy harbour. It is found right on the coast of the Pacific Ocean. The town is located where the Lingue River meets the sea.

Mehuín is part of the San José de la Mariquina area. This area is in the Valdivia Province, which is part of the Los Ríos Region. You can find Mehuín a few kilometers south of another town called Queule. It is also very close to the line that separates the Los Ríos Region from the Araucanía Region.
