For many years Rocky Point a small fishing village was a well kept secret. It wasn't until the Prohibition era that it was truly discovered. Johnny Stone, an American businessman visited Puerto Peñasco, and realised it's absolute potential as a dream vacation hot spot. He built the very first hotel, and opened up for business.
Soon Rocky Point was attracting a whos-who of the 1930's including the infamous Al Capone who along with cronies raved about the fabulous climate (it rarely rains if ever), the beauty of the landscape, and the fantastic deep-sea fishing it offers.
Another little known factoid for the history buff is that NASA trained it's astronauts for the lunar mission in the nearby Pinacate Mountains.
Rocky Point is well known today for it rich history, culture, fishing, swimming (very safe swimming conditions), and ideal weather.
