Diving Cabo Pulmo: Sea of Cortes

Diving Cabo Pulmo: Sea of Cortes

 

Here is a short video of some of the Sea Life that can be found in the Sea of Cortez

Cabo Pulmo located on the east cape of the Southern Baja is the Northern most coral reef in the Eastern Pacific. It has been an ANP or Area Natural Protegido for many years now. Basically a Marine National Park. The controversy that Cabo Pulmo now faces is from a high density land development very close to the park borders. This group of local citizens from La Paz and Cabo Pulmo have been fighting the development. The web site is www.cabopulmovivo.org and please go here if you wish to sign their letter. The locals are not against developing the area but this development, as many things in Mexico, was pushed through with an exceptionally flawed environmental impact study. Here are some links to Cabo Pulmo by Conanp, the governmental area in charge of protecting and administering Cabo Pulmo and also a really great bunch of people at Niparaja. Niparaja is an NGO doing some great work in Southern Baja and I would like to thank Amy and Erendira for sitting down with me at their office and allowing me an interview.
