Enjoy a day of exploration along the shores of the Salton Sea, host to some of the most amazing man made and natural wonders in Southern California. Your adventure begins with a trip through the heart of the Coachella Valley agricultural district, where you will be amazed by the volume of produce being harvested. Along the way you will stop at a date gardens where you can sample a variety of dates, purchase dates to take home as souvenirs, or even try a date shake. Then it’s on to the Salton Sea, the largest body of water in the State of California, and an accidental man-made wonder. The Salton Sea is host to over 456 species of birds and water fowl that either migrate or live here year-round. At the Salton Sea State Recreational Area Visitor’s Center, you can peruse the museum, watch a video presentation by the park rangers on the creation of the Salton Sea, and then join your guide on a nature walk through the Native Plant Gardens.
The next stop on our journey is Salvation Mountain, Leonard Knight’s tribute to God with its simple yet powerful message “God is love”. Our return trip will take us through the Waterfowl Wildlife Sanctuary and enjoy unparalleled 360 degree views of the Santa Rosa, Orocopia, and Chocolate Mountains.
