Fishing & Clamming

 

 

The Sea of Cortez has many species of fish.

 

Corvina is the most popular for shore fishing. Summer and Fall are the best seasons for corvina and there is good fishing for yellowtail from a boat.

 

Charter fishing from Kino is available.

 

The best clamming spot in the area is within walking distance of the park.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Money & Banking

 

 

 The closest bank is in Miguel Aleman (Calle Doce). US cash can be exchanged for pesos in the bank. An ATM that accepts Canadian and American cards is also available at the bank and at the Super Val grocery store. (Hermosillo has numerous banks and ATMs.)

 

US cash or pesos are the most acceptable form of tender. A few of the restaurants in Kino may accept credit cards.

 

 

 

Groceries & Shopping

 

 


New and Old Kino have a number of small convenience stores, and some small speciality stores (tortillas, baking, butcher, seafood). Migual Aleman (Calle Doce) has some larger grocery stores. Hermosillo has major stores - Walmart, Costco and Sams.

 

The park office has sodas, juices and boxed milk for sale. During peak season a vegetable truck visits the park once a week.

 

 

Doctors & Hospitals

 

Kino Bay has a small clinic and a Red Cross service. The park has radio contact with the town to dispatch an ambulance should the need arise.

 

Hermosillo has a full service CIMA hospital. (Baylor Hospitals) Most doctors are bilingual and all medical specialities are available.

 

 

 

Gas, Diesel & Propane

 

Old and New Kino both have a fuel station (PEMEX) that sells gas and diesel.

 

Propane is available for sale at the park for portable tanks. Propane for motorhomes may be purchased from the propane truck, but only when it is visiting the park to fill the main tanks. The closest propane service is in Migual Aleman (Calle Doce). We recommend that you enter the park with full propane tanks.
