The Seri, who call themselves Comcaac, live on the coast of Sonora near the Gulf of California. Their culture is closely associated with the desert and coastal environment, including islands, marine resources, and the Sonoran landscape.

For expats and citizenship learners, the Seri are an important example of northern coastal Indigenous Mexico. They show how Indigenous cultures are shaped by many different environments, from mountains and forests to deserts and the sea.
