River otters live in burrows by the edge of rivers or lakes in close proximity to the fish they feed on. Just south of the main part of San Pedro, off the Sun Breeze Hotel and Ramon's Reef Resort, there is some rocky floor (Pleistocene) exposed and isolated clumps of soft coral may be observed there.
