| Through
an investment of 300 million dollars,
Puerto Peñasco today is
the principal tourist center in
the state and one of the most
important growing areas in the
country.
Among
the strengths that Puerto Peñasco
has, is that as a beach destination
it provides the most important
attraction: the sea. It is easy
to access by highway, and located
only 60 miles south of the border
with Arizona, our principal market.
There
is professional confidence in
the area of investment, making
the destination even more attractive
for sustainable development.
With
the construction of the International
Airport, soon Puerto Peñasco
will be able to offer tourist
and commercial links to principal
cities in Mexico and the United
States.
The
opening of the coastal highway,
which in its first stage from
Puerto Peñasco –
El Golf is expected to join commercial
and tourism ties with the neighboring
state of California, will take
advantage of the scenic value
of the Sea of Cortez.
Puerto
Peñasco offers the opportunity
to all investors who wish to form
part of the development and sustainable
economic growth of the area, which
has the backing and support of
the three levels of government.
Among
the possible threats that the
development and growth of Puerto
Peñasco could face are
federal government initiatives
for future guidelines, regulations
and foundations for tourist projects.
Another
factor in the area of threats
is that due to the growth of tourism,
the community of Puerto Peñasco
suffers from a lack of water,
a problem that has been on the
rise for two years. It is important
to mention that tourism development,
and investment, has exceeded the
level of such when compared with
that of community services.
