Bombay Beach

Bombay Beach is located on the east shore of the Salton Sea and, like many communities along its shores, has had to contend with rising and falling water levels. A berm now protects the west end of the town but a portion of the town beyond the berm is either sunken under water or is half-buried in mud. Most people use golf carts to get around since the nearest gas station is 20 miles away. Bombay Beach may be the most surreal place on the entire planet. The town attracts many photographers and visitors because of this fact. The town, as well as others on the shores of the Salton Sea, is the lowest settlement in North America. Bombay Beach is very near to the San Andreas Fault and was the location of a foreshock in the fictional made for TV movie The Big One: The Great Los Angeles Earthquake
