My wife and I spent three weeks in Puerto Penasco/Rocky Point in November of 2012 and thoroughly enjoyed it. We pulled a 26' travel trailer down from Phoenix through Gila Bend and Ajo, AZ and went back up through Yuma the Sunday after Thanksgiving. If you're in California cross at San Luis south of Yuma and take the highway south toward El Golfo then continue southeast on the coastal highway to Puerto Penasco. We found the roads to be in good condition and enjoyed the drive. We stayed at Playa Bonita RV park http://www.rockypointreview.com/ad11324.html and would recommend it. We later checked out other parks but found Playa Bonita right on the beach the best for us. Some websites to check out: http://wikitravel.org/en/Puerto_Pe%C3%B1asco and http://www.rvgoddess.com/TRAVEL/MEXICO.aspx
Hey Gene,
Thanks for the info. I have some reservation regarding the recent events at Rocky Point. Is it safer now after the Government showoff force or was that more of an indicator that safety in RP is declining?
I feel as safe visiting places like Puerto Vallarta or Playa del Carmen as I do visiting Seattle or San Diego. However, areas close to the US border do cause me a bit more concern. And again, is it likely to be "beach weather" that far North this time of year?
What do you all think?
Thanks again.
Steve
