Rocky Point (Puerto Penasco): Consulates

Consulates information

-- Random Penasco photo! --

Trademark enforcement is not what it is in the US. And I have never associated Windows with 'fun' :)

The U.S. government maintains extensive amounts of travel and other information for people headed to other countries.

While you might not think you'd need US Consular advice before visiting South America, they contain locale-specific alerts and heads-ups that are often worth checking out.

The Consulate puts out:

Warnings - issued when the US Consulate is against all travel to a country

Announcements - short term immediate warnings with specifics

Consular info sheets - broad spectrum information about a country

Check out http://travel.state.gov for a full list of consulates. Below is some information for the closest Mexican consulates and the closet US Consulate in Mexico.
