The Salamá River is a river in Guatemala. It is a tributary of the Chixoy River. The river is fed by a number of streams running down the slopes of the Sierra de las Minas and Sierra de Chuacús and flows in a north-westerly direction through the town of Salamá until it joins the Chixoy River.^{[1] [2]}
