    International Biosphere Reserve

    We all know the earth’s oceans are being threatened by over fishing and that governments have been slow to respond. Well, a happier ending to this recurrent story is in Rocky Point, a.k.a. Puerto Penasco, Mexico. Today you can book fantastic accommodations and tours through RockyPoint-Mexico.com on the Sea of Cortez to see what has been called world’s best natural laboratory for research of organism speciation. Nearly all the major biological processes occurring in earth’s oceans are taking place in the area, making it of exceptional importance for research. The turquoise waters and abundant sea life off the shores of Rocky Point, Mexico make it an eco-enthusiast’s paradise. There are over 800 species of fish and 39 species of marine mammals that divers swim among, reveling in the fact that sometimes mankind steps up to do what has to be done in time.

    In the 1980s, this harbor on the Sea of Cortez was teeming with schools of blue shrimp. Japanese fleets moved in to harvest the valuable species using their now infamous long drag nets and almost wiped out the fishing industry in the entire area. After five years, the Mexican government expelled the Japanese trawlers, but it would be another decade before they could protect it through international agreement. Fortunately, through scientific and careful management of the biosphere present at Rocky Point, sea life is once again abundant.

    The best way to enjoy a tour of this is to use RockyPoint-Mexico.com. Not only are they hands-down the best reservation system of a wide variety of properties in Puerto Penasco, they are also local residents who know all the ins and outs of what is available at the best prices. They booked a tour for us that we could have never found it on our own that was a local expert on the biology and history of Rocky Point. It was the vest eco-vacation we have ever taken!
