As Puerto Peñasco begins to gradually reopen its doors to tourism, the City Administration and the Puerto Peñasco Convention and Visitors Bureau Come to Rocky Point are providing information as to requirements on coming into town, as well as a list (to be continually updated) on Certified / Sanitized hotels / resorts / rental companies, and current restrictions/guidelines in effect across the city.
For a list of Certified Properties during this process of Phase 3, please check: Entry protocol for tourists visiting Puerto Peñasco
As well as the City’s site: PuertoPeñasco.gob.mx
