Gulf of California Amateur and professional naturalists have found the Gulf of California one of the most alluring regions in the world. The Gulf exceeds 1,000 km in length, covers nearly 50,000 square miles of ocean surface, and spans nine degrees of latitude, traversing the Tropic of Cancer in its southern most reaches. The Gulf of California is one of the most productive and biologically diverse seas in the world, harboring an estimated 10,000 invertebrate species. The Gulf is home to over 35 islands – some of which provide the only habitat on earth for several species of plants, bird and reptiles. The Sonoran Sea Aquarium™ will be the only research and education institution worldwide to focus on this unique ‘circle of life,’ from desert rivers to open sea.
