    Sting Ray protection?

    Hi, all, I love to run in the ocean (When I can't swim, which is when there are big waves), but I'm a little nervous about getting a stingray hit. Anyone know of protection for that? How big are the rays here? I assume that if you had protection up to above the ankle you'd be ok? Thanks.

    Any birders?

    I confess, I am too lazy to be a birder, but I'm always intrigued by birds. Saw one yesterday flying by me at Mirador beach, about the size of a large gull, but with broader wings. Long sharp red bill, black body except for white stripes on top of the wings. Anyone have any idea what I saw?

    Fish issue

    Hi, guys and gals, I thought I'd ask the experts about this- I have two questions about fish in the area. 1. Does anyone know if there are halibut or swordfish to be had (to buy, I mean)? Doesn't need to be now, just wondering if there's a season for my two favorite fish. 2. I've had some...

    Mosquitoes?

    Hi- Just wondering how the mosquitoes are in Puerto Penasco? Last two times I was there, in March and May, they were non-existent. Also, is there actually a rainy season down there? I know mit gets only 2 inches of rain a year, so it can't be a very lengthy one. :D
