Good News for Puerto Peñasco

For all of those Southern Californians who love going to Rocky Point (Puerto Peñasco) but hate to drive I have good news. Aeromexico has announced it will be offering flights from LAX to Puerto Peñasco on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. These flights will make the once sleepy fishing village more accessible to travelers from California. The increased tourism will also have a positive impact on the local economy.

SPOTLIGHT: Puerto Penasco (Rocky Point)

What up and coming coastal resort town is drawing visitors from all over Arizona and California? It's Puerto Peñasco! Puerto Peñasco, also known as "Rocky Point", is located in the Mexican state of Sonora, about a 3 hour drive from Phoenix. Tourism has been growing steadily over the last few years, but with the recent addition of luxury developments Puerto Peñasco is sure to turn many of these visitors into residents. Also, the addition of the Coastal Highway, which will connect the San Luis Rio Colorado with the port of Guaymas, will attract investors and promote business in the area. In 2008, the city will open its new International airport, making it accesible to visitors from around the world.
