Sandy Beach Resorts
Rocky Point's Master Planned Community

Picture
~Sandy Beach Resorts has a long history in the town of Puerto Penasco.  Purchased in 1940 by Duncan Brown, a Mexican Citizen of American descent, the 3,374 acres of land located just northwest of Rocky Point, was originally owned by the Mexican Federal Government. Duncan would travel regularly to the Sonoran Capital of Hermosilio. While en route by way of train, Duncan passed through the quaint little fishing village of Puerto Penasco where he met the white sandy beaches on the Sea of Cortez. Upon his death, Duncan’s widow sold the land to her brother-in-law Gus Brown, Sr. in 1956.

Laguna Shores Master Planned Resort
Offering Peace and Tranquility

Picture
Stephanie and I took a drive to visit Laguna Shores Resort that we have read so much about in the local English newspapers, Rocky Point Times and Join Us. The resort is currently advertising a 2 for 1 special. Offering two condos for the prrice of one.  Whe wanted to know what all the hype was about.

Finding Laguna Shores wasn’t too hard.  We traveled west off of highway 8  north of town taking the new federal coastal highway 6 miles to the resort entrance.   A guard gate marked the entrance to the resort. After we checked-in with the guard we drove the remaining 2 mile stretch on a well maintained dirt road.
