Bombay Beach

A half-abandoned shoreline town turned open-air art installation, with the Bombay Beach Biennale each spring.

Bombay Beach is in Bombay Beach, Salton Sea. It suits photography and desert oddities.

There is no admission charge. Hours: Anytime.

This is an outdoor activity. From May through September, go at or before sunrise, carry more water than you think you need, and treat midday heat as a hard stop.
