Now, because of the new Mar de Cortes International Airport, the destination is less than an hour by air from Phoenix; less than two hours from Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Albuquerque.
Why is Puerto Penasco a great destination flight? The answer is simple: boundless beaches, natural beauty, wildlife and recreational offerings that, until now, required long drives across desert and mountain terrain. Plus, it boasts the best opportunities for big catches. Jet over the border in Spring to fish plenty of red snapper, whitefish, halibut, goldspotted bass and black sea bass in the beautiful Sea of Cortez. Let Grupo Mayan plan a fishing charter for you so you can experience some serious fishing and adventure. Even the shore fishing is off the charts with an abundance of rock bass and trigger fish.
