Puerto Peñasco, known in English as Rocky Point, has served as a fishing port in Sonora since the early 20th century. It lies on the Gulf of California, where the Sonoran Desert meets the sea and broad tidal shores shape the coast. The Old Port remains a focal point, with seafood restaurants, small boats and the waterfront Malecón recalling the town’s working maritime roots. North of the city, the volcanic landscapes of the El Pinacate and Gran Desierto de Altar Biosphere Reserve form part of a UNESCO World Heritage site.
