I saw last weekend what looked like a red tide, but then it went away with the higher waves. I say red tide because the sea was so blue, but the dark area looked more redish in color. Also there were more dead birds (mostly small) on shore. I've only seen red tide once in Penasco.

"Oh how convenient to pay, but what about the banks no longer excepting US checks now. Isn't there a lady from Dorado doing bank transfers also for a small fee? Seems more safer. Just a thought." Scotia hasn't mentioned not accepting American bank checks. They do take cash, or a Credit card...

Where was this?

I'm so glad to hear the whales are back! Do you know how many?

Ours in Miramar is around $350/year as well from Scotia Bank.for the 50 year trust renewable in 2054. They don't have an office in Penasco, so the head of Bank Trusts from Hermosillo drives up for our Spring HOA meeting, and you can pay then w/ a bank receipt. Otherwise, you have to try to...

What does the dog look like? We saw a golden retriever in Miramar on Friday night but not after that

We had our fire going all weekend, but that North wind was really blowing on Saturday, less so on Sunday. It should be really cold this New Years and the weekend.

Disgruntled HOA is a tautology ( 2 words that mean the same thing) !

"They started the name calling in this thread then act all hurt when it comes back at them." Jerry, I didn't think Russ's comment had any name calling- just stating the facts that you can call the town Rocky Point because that's the original name.

My parents drove there and said it was an incredibly beautiful beach, but full of biting bugs. There's nothing that can talk me into visiting with those biting sand fleas and mosquitoes!

When Hillberto said "I never call Puerto Penasco Rocky Point" because he didn't want to get lumped in with tourists, Russ responded that it was William Hardy in 1825 who first named the area Rocky Point. There was no need to start bashing him for that response- let's all chill out , especially...

I think the unfinished project they're talking about is Esmeralda.

Jerry, I'm betting the port is finished before the road from Sasabe to Altar!

It was a beautiful Thanksgiving day- sunny, warm, with calm waters. The next day our son saw 18 sea turtles hatch and make their way to the water just east of Encanto.

Several homes on the beach in Playa Miramar are FSBO.

I've never wanted a burger in Penasco- beef and shrimp tacos, shrimp cocktails or fish. You can't get better than that. But this is good to know if I ever am down for a while and need Cheeseburger in Paradise.
