Puerto Peñasco, or Rocky Point as it’s known is English, was built on fishing. This charming town is a hub for exploring the Sea of Cortez and offers up incredible angling opportunities for a range of exciting and delicious fish. Come and make the most of it with a Puerto Peñaco fishing charter and discover one of Mexico’s gems – located just over 60 miles from the US border!
Plenty of dazzling creatures call the Sea of Cortez home, but few places have the range of inshore fishing grounds on offer in Puerto Peñasco. The numerous bays just a stone’s throw from downtown offer up beauties like Triggerfish, Corvina, Pompano, Sand Bass, Halibut, Mackerel, and Porgy. Even on a short trip, you can fill the boat with plenty of meat for dinner.
But that’s not all! Head out to the reefs and the deep waters of the Sea of Cortez and you won’t know what’s hit you. Snappers, Groupers, Mahi Mahi, Skipjack, and Yellowtail are common catches offshore. These tough-fighting monsters are sure to keep you busy! But, if you want a serious fight and the chance of landing that trophy catch, then Sailfish will tempt you.
With so many fishing grounds to explore, there’s a charter here that caters to everyone’s needs. Beginners and families can explore the calm waters inshore in just a few hours, while the more experienced can spend a full day fishing. Meanwhile, real pros will relish the chance to head offshore. A full or extended full day trip will give you the chance to make the most of it.
