Puerto Penasco Travel Guide
Mexico
Puerto Peñasco is a Mexican city of 33,875 people on the Gulf of California, in the north-west of the country. It is a coastal destination in the Sonoran region, with a hot, dry climate and milder conditions in winter.
Travellers arriving by air can use Puerto Peñasco Airport, also known by the code PPE. No notable named beaches are identified within 40 kilometres of the city, so specific beach recommendations require checking locally rather than relying on a named nearby stretch of coast.
