The Sea of Cortez Experience
Known for its shimmering turquoise waters, The Sea of Cortez, or Gulf of California, is a spectacular, partially-enclosed sea that lies between the Baja California Peninsula and the Mainland of Mexico. Bordered by the states of Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sonora, and Sinaloa, the Sea of Cortez in the east separates Baja from the mainland portion of Mexico, while the western shore is met with the Pacific Ocean. To the south, The Sea of Cortez laps up against La Paz, San Carlos, and San Jose del Cabo. To the north, two remarkably different but inextricably-linked worlds meet, as open desert suddenly spills into a beautiful, sparkling coastline. Find out more about the surrounding area and why this environmentally-preserved ecosystem contains a wealth of marine life unequalled anywhere in the world. [+] read more
