Sea of Cortez & The Midriff Islands Region
The Sea of Cortez’s unspoiled blue waters that meet the shores of Las Animas Wilderness Retreat provide one of the worlds most nutrient rich marine habitats. Tidal flow is diverted by nearby islands, creating a rich mixture of saltwater, oxygen, and nutrients The result of all of these unique climate and geographical formations is the perfect habitat for the abundant sea chain: microscopic plankton, bait and game fish, sea birds, dolphins, sea lions and whales. Twelve species of annual whales; including the Blue Whale (the largest animal that inhabits the planet) make the rich waterways of Sea of Cortez their home. Bottlenose and Common Dolphins, California Sea Lions and Elephant Seals are all found in the Sea of Cortez, often in large numbers. It is not at all uncommon to find large pods of friendly dolphins hundreds of yards wide. California Sea Lions are perhaps most common to the Midriff’s with a large rookery just 2.4 miles from the retreat. Watching the antics of the sea lions from the peace and safety of a sea kayak is a once in a lifetime experience.That’s why this totally pristine Sea of Cortez region has been coined the ” Galapagos of Mexico”.
Desert Plants & The Sea of Cortez
The stunning Sonoran Desert also offers a truly unique set of inhabitants. More than 20 cactus species thrive here, 70% of which are indigenous to Baja. In the desert along the coast, you’ll also find Boojam and Elephant trees, Giant Cardon Cactus (more than 60 ft.) and Ironwood, all growing with forest like density near the retreat. Hard surfaces and open areas allow for easy to moderate hiking and prime observation opportunities.. Many newcomers to the Baja desert find the plants more prolific in color, variety, and density then they imagined. And in the scarce times of rain, the desert very quickly blooms with a vivid display of greenery and flowers.Enhance your Quality of Life
