About:
Sandy Beach stands out as one of the premier walking beaches in Puerto Peñasco, renowned for its flat and hard-packed sand. The area boasts a vibrant landscape, featuring 15 condominium resorts, 3 hotels, and a picturesque golf course. The development of Sandy Beach gained momentum in the late 1990s with the inception of La Princesa as the inaugural development. Recently, the Sonoran Resort Group announced the upcoming construction of Sonoran Star, the fifth development in the area, positioned between Playa Bonita Hotel and Las Gaviotas condos.
