CAMACHILE is a coastal barangay located north of the town proper. It is bounded on the north and west by Calungusan, on the south by Sto. Domingo and on the east by Manila Bay. The barangay measures some 64.26 hectares and populated by 1,466 inhabitants, based on 2000 Census. The barangay is accessible from the Bataan National Road via the Camachile Street.

The name of the barangay came from the popular wild fruit tree called camachile which grows abundantly in the area. Camachile was once part of Barangay Sto. Domingo until it was separated in 1907.  Others claimed that the year of separation was 1914. Camachile’s formal recognition as a regular barangay was recorded in 1915, during the term of Maximino delos Reyes as governor and Francisco Urquisa as mayor of Orion. The barangay had been ruled by cabezas since the early Spanish period.
