El Marino (the marine, in Spanish) was a Chilean daily newspaper, based in Pichilemu, Cardenal Caro province. It was founded on 14 January 1917 by newspaper editor Augusto Ramírez Olivares, and circulated between January and March 1917.

During its publication, El Marino attempted to convince authorities to provide drinking water to the commune of Pichilemu, and once suggested it to be extracted from a local lake, del Perro. It also documented the visits of prominent Chilean doctors, including Carlos Charlín Correa, who would later become the rector of the University of Chile in 1927. The newspaper also documented the plans of President Juan Luis Sanfuentes to visit Pichilemu. Despite its popularity, El Marino ceased its circulation as Ramírez moved back to San Fernando, his hometown, where he resumed publications of La Provincia, a newspaper he founded in 1903.
