Puerto Penasco, Sonora, Mexico: This former fishing village is found along the northeastern shore of the Sea of Cortez, which is also known as the Gulf of California.  Also known as Rocky Point by the gringos who frequent its beaches and other natural wonders, the city of Puerto Penasco is a great destination for North American travelers all year long.  It has some of the very best beaches, the water is warm and clear, the tides are quite large and the swimming and snorkeling is excellent.  You can fish on many of the party fishing boats, linger pool-side at one of the pleasant hotels or rental condos around town, enjoy a cocktail in one of the many local establishments and dine at one of the nice and inexpensive restaurants along the ocean.

Puerto Penasco was known for its large fishing fleet.  Now that shrimping has greatly declined in this area of the Sea of Cortez, many of Rocky Point's fishing boats have been permanently retired.  The guide below is a collection for travelers of many Puerto Penasco resources.  We hope you have an enjoyable visit to this friendly city on the water.
