I normally don’t do blogs on areas other than Puerto Peñasco, but over several years of doing this, I get asked a lot by tourists who winter here, what can I do to see Mexico. Many of the Rv’ers love wine and have never heard of the Valle de Guadalupe’s Wine Country. So we decided [...]

It is that time of the year when our little city of Puerto Peñasco hosts college Spring Breaks and then is followed by Semana Santa or Easter Holy Week. All condos and hotels are already being booked, so if you are planning on coming in March, I would suggest you make your reservations today. Not [...]
We recently did a blog about Whale Watching in Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, Mexico and suggestions on which boats do Whale Watching tours. I included in that information things about fishing charters and sunset cruises that these 3 companies do. By all means these are not all the boats that do sunset cruises or fishing trips. [...]
