Something to read: Alto Golfo de California Biosphere Reserve is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve located in the state of Sonora in extreme northwestern Mexico. The 1,652,110 hectares reserve comprises the El Pinacate y Gran Desierto reserve and the Bahia Adair on the Gulf of California border. Geological volcanic formations with craters, dunes, oasis and beaches, and the diversity of plant associations determine its special landscape. The reserve was established in 1993 by the President of Mexico as Reserva de la Biosfera del Alto Golfo de California y Delta del Río Colorado and extended in 1995. As of 1990, 129,516 inhabitants live in the transition and buffer areas in ejidos or communal properties, primarily engaged in agriculture, forestry, mineral extractions and cattle raising located mainly in the coastal areas. One of the most important economic activities in the transition areas is the existence of international enterprises (maquiladoras), in San Luis Río Colorado, which engage 5,880 people living in the urban villages. The reserve is managed by the Municipality of Mexicali in the State of Baja California and the Municipalities of Puerto Peñasco and San Luis Río Colorado in the State of Sonora.

It's a clean beautiful beach. They have ATV's for rent and you can drive your vehicle in the sand. They have an RV park area for anyone wanting to drive down there in their RV's. They also have plenty of hotels and shops near by. Only reason for the 4 stars is because, I tend to during the week when everything is slower. So all the restaurants are either closed or they don't have everything they would serve on Fri, Sat, and Sunday. So I just drive back to our town about 45 min away to 1hour and eat there. But other than that it's a nice beach to go and enjoy yourself for a day or 2 or maybe 3. 😁

Super cool place. Easy access. Affordable. The place was very well kept, clean and patrons were allowed to park their vehicles by the cabanas. The ocean was amazing! I will definitely recommend this place for a get away.

La Reserva de la Biósfera del Alto Golfo de California y Delta del Río Colorado es un extenso territorio que abarca miles de hectáreas de Baja California y Sonora, y que así fue nominada en virtud del interés que las autoridades no sólo nacionales, sino mundiales, tienen en proteger las especies de la fauna y de la flora de esta región. Estas y otras condiciones relacionadas con el equilibrio ambiental, las requiere el planeta para la sobrevivencia digna y sana --tanto moral como material-- de la humanidad. En tales circunstancias, la legislación de la materia prohíbe estrictamente la utilización, extracción y/o explotación de los recursos naturales que hasta la fecha se han escapado de la depredación. Algunas áreas son ricas en flora y fauna, aunque los recursos hídricos casi no existen y eso le da al territorio de esta reserva una imagen mayoritariamente desértica. El agua del Río Colorado, detenida sobre todo por las grandes presas norteamericanas --pues ahora sólo hay los escurrimientos para cubrir parcialmente las necesidades agrícolas, domésticas e industriales de Mexicali, la capital bajacaliforniana--, no desemboca como lo hizo milenariamente en el Golfo de California, por lo que se han venido dando algunos fenómenos de cuasi extinción de especies tales como la caguama, la totoaba y la vaquita marina. A tal punto sucede esto, que ahora sólo quedarían menos de 30 ejemplares...
