"Bombay Beach on the Salton Sea" sounds exotic, maybe even fun. That was the intent. But it's actually an ecological mess. Increasing salinity and agricultural runoff have made the sea unpleasant at best, toxic at worst. The resorts were abandoned yet residents hang on.
The Dead Sea In Israel is a similar ecological phenomena but unlike the Salton Sea is close to mountain runoffs and has some rain. Very unfortunate!
