THE SEA OF CORTEZ EXPERIENCE | PROTECTED WILDLIFE | ESPIRITU SANTO ISLAND

The Sea of Cortez is unique in several ways: it receives more sunlight than any other sea (340-plus days of sunshine per year); it has extreme depths of greater than 2 miles; and it contains three distinct currents. The result is an abundance of microscopic plankton, the stable diet of marine life. Thus, in this environmentally-preserved ecosystem, the wealth of marine wildlife is unequalled anywhere in the northern hemisphere.







The Sea of Cortez Experience
The Sea of Cortez, or Gulf of California, is a naturalist’s delight, both above and below the waters, and offers a huge assortment of water sports and eco-adventures for you to enjoy. For starters, it is a world-class sport-fishing, scuba-diving and deep-sea snorkeling destination. Equally a boater’s dream, the Sea of Cortez abounds with deserted islands waiting to be explored, as well as pristine, white sand beaches, secret coves, and uninhabited islets — perfect for a kayaking, sailing, or cruising expedition.
