About 4 years ago I drove around Salton Sea and checked out the visitor center, as well as Fountain of Youth RV Park and hot springs. The Sea has an interesting history, but isn't very attractive. The water level is dependent on agricultural run-off varies quite a bit. It can be buggy, stinky or littered with dead fish. I took my dog for a walk along the shore near the visitor center and that was reasonably pleasant in February. I stayed at Cahuilla Lake with a group that trip. I intended to go back to Fountain of Youth the next winter, but didn't ever do that. Anza Borrego and Joshua Tree are better.
