Rocky Point Bird Island More Sea Lions

It's so much fun to jump off the boat and into the ocean and swim with 1000's of Sea Lions at the popular and well known Bird Island at Rocky Point, Sonora, Mex.. They are big, some over 350 lbs, but they are very play full and pretty much harmless.  They are as curious about you as you are them.  So in addition to viewing many Sea Birds you will get to have fun swimming with the Sea Lions.  There are boats available for charter to take you and your guests to the island located 27 nautical miles from the shores of Rocky Point.  Most provide snorkel gear so while out there you can snorkel and get a view of some pretty colorful fish.  This is truly something the whole family can enjoy and great picture taking too.  You'll want to charter your boat during the warmer months, March through the middle of November, if your quest is to swim and snorkel out there.  Or it's worth the trip just to view all the sea life from the boat.
