Ocean Oasis is a fascinating journey into the bountiful seas and pristine deserts of two remarkably different, but inextricably linked worlds - Mexico's Sea of Cortès and the Baja California desert. Glide side-by-side with a graceful giant manta ray as it arches and swoops through water sparkling under the hot Baja California sun.
