Welcome to the Rocky Point Triathlon! This is a bucket-list event for adventure seekers and triathletes from all over the world!
Puerto Penasco is an incredible small town nestled on the shores of the Sea of Cortez and we love hosting you at our triathlon. Triathlete Magazine named us the Best Triathlon Party in the World and here are some reasons why:
The Weather: In Mid April, the air and water temperatures are perfect. The race start is around 75*F and the water temps are about the same! It can get warm on the run course later in the day but we have a cool slip n' slide finish line and a pool party waiting for you!
The Experience: We recommend booking your lodging early so you can experience everything Puerto Penasco and the triathlon have to offer. Stay on our private resort (with a discount!) the Las Palomas Resort and Golf Club. The rooms are incredible and perfect for your family and friends to all stay together. They have full kitchens, every room has an amazing view, and the event takes place right down on the beach in front of you!
The swim takes place in the Sea of Cortez along the shore line. The Sprint swim is 500 meters and the Olympic swim 1000 m. The bike course is throughout Sandy Beach on mostly closed roads and when it's not completely closed, you get an entire lane to yourself. The Sprint bike is 9.4 miles and the Olympic is 24 miles long. The Run Course is on our private golf course and finishing on the sandy beach right in front of the resort!
There's so much to do before and after your run, so make sure you stay a while! The beautiful fishing town of "Rocky Point" is just up the road from Las Palomas and there are so many great dining spots along the water, make sure you check them all out!
