Also an option in Mesquite Bay is a trail that leads to the floating fishing dock in the area.

Filled with placards that offer fun facts about the area, visitors can understand the small Bay and learn about the wildlife and the foliage surrounding the area as they make the journey to the dock.

This unique area is home to the dusty reptiles of the desert, bright colored butterflies and other wildlife.

Visitors may see cactuses or other wildflowers, depending on the season. Water plants such as algae, and moss can also be found.
