I've only seen one in Conception Bay, it was off the beach on Isla Coyote, facing east.

Vince...I have seen them off Bargo Island n front of our places...y'know, where the huge 'forever' osprey nest was? Just below that was my favorite
snorkling spot...a million years ago. I never collected any, though, more's the pity. Today? Hah..have fun trying to find one. 
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Alex saw one at La Ventana last summer.
He also claims to have been pursued by a sea snake at Concepcion. But I figure it must've been a moray.

Saw a tiny live one at Shell Island... Baja Angel thought it was so cool to see one swimming along... It looked almost like some sea weed and not a
sea horse!

We've seen several at different spots around Loreto. They are in the weeds ( bottom growth ) and are very hard to spot. Found some on the island
beaches and the wife bought some in La Paz.

Me too. They are a treasure. On the top of "my favorite animal" list.
